Vanni force headquarters Commander Major General Boniface Perera said, subsequent to the end of war in Sri Lanka, not one civilian got disappeared in the Vanni district.
He challenged if possible to give details of any persons disappeared after the end of war, who are they and when and where?
Concerning this, he said, he is prepared to argue on behalf of the Sri Lanka government with any individual or with any movement around the globe.
He said, none went missing or abducted after war came to an end in Vanni. Meanwhile allegations made in this manner are totally false.
People from the three communities got displaced during the Vanni district war. However priority is given for the Tamils for resettlement. On completion of this, we are resettling the Sinhalese. However, contrary statements are published in Medias, said Major.
He said, due to war all three communities were displaced in Vanni district, however we have given priority for the resettlement of Tamils.

Suspected persons connected with drugs and murder charges are detained along with Tamil political prisoners at Colombo Magazine prison, which has become a threat for the political prisoners, was said.
Due to this reason the Tamil political prisoners have appealed, to make alternate arrangements to shift the majority race prisoners charged with drugs and killing to some other division.
51 Tamil political prisoners are detained at the GH unit at the Magazine prison, but some days back 15 majority community prisoners were confined to this unit.
Subsequent to this, the Tamil political prisoners were on a hunger protest appealing to refrain from detaining the majority prisoners along with them.
Democratic People Front Deputy Leader, western province council member M.Kumarakurubaran said, he had discussions with Mr. Emil Ranjan, Superintendent of Magazine prison concerning this issue.
Detaining suspected person’s connected with drugs and murder charges with Tamil political prisoners at Colombo Magazine prison, has become a threat for the political prisoners and Kumarakurubaran made an appeal to the Prison Superintendent to take appropriate action concerning this issue.
We cannot differentiate as Tamil and Sinhala prisoners. However security is guaranteed for the safety of Tamil prisoners, affirmed Superintendent.
