Tamil Nadu students demand India supports international investigation into genocide

09 March 2014
Groups of Tamil Nadu students have dismissed the current draft UNHRC resolution as weak, calling on the Indian central government to ensure an international investigation into war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide by the Sri Lankan state, as well as a referendum amongst Eelam Tamils over independence. 


Five students (pictured above) who launched a hunger strike in Coimbatore earlier this week, moved their protest to the Mullaivaikkaal memorial after facing intimidation by the Indian police (see below).
