(Lanka-e-News, July 08, 2010, 10.50AM) Peace Force and non violence Directress, Tiffany Eastham of the SL division and Human rights protection coordinator Ali Pal have been informed by the Dept of Immigration and Emigration that their visas have been cancelled, and they cannot stay any longer in SL.

When Chulananda Perera, the Immigration and emigration Director General was asked about this visa cancellation, he stated that he had acted on the report furnished by the Govt. intelligence unit.
The decision to expel two chief Peace Force officers from SL amidst protests staged against the appointment of a Committee by Ban Ki Moon to advise him on the human rights violations in SL during the war has invited the focus and attention of all Organizations acting on behalf of human rights protection.

The non violent peace Force had been running offices in Colombo, Batticaloa and the North, and have been in SL for a long time. This is an International Organization which is world recognized and ha s been appearing on behalf of those whose human rights have been violated.

I condemn the act of forcibly separation from human rights activities, by political reasons; it is also a moral, social and ideological exile.

its shocking news, i seriously condemn this act. in such circumstances, its proved that government is not working independently,there was no justification to cancel visas.this matter must be noticed by international human rights institutions.

Ban Ki-moon should have thought very carefully about all these possible events before deciding to play fool with a souverign state like Sri Lanka. The latest news of UN-Colombo office closure is already out and the top UN official has been called back to Washington. These are not good stuff for anybody at any time. UN should remember that the country is just recovering and trying to come up after 330 years of terrorist war. An Organization such as UN should not be a partner and to co-operate with the conspirators who are trying to kneel down Sri Lanka in another way.
