Tamil Diaspora youth protest in front of Indian Embassy in Switzerland
[TamilNet, Friday, 02 June 2017, 21:41 GMT]
Eezham Tamil Diaspora activists in Switzerland mobilized a protest on Friday in front of the Indian Embassy at Bern, demanding the release of Tamil Nadu activists Thirumurgan Gandhi from the May 17 Movement, and Daison, Ilamaran and Arun from the Tamil Vidiyal Kadchi. The four activists have been detained without trial in Puzhal Jail by Tamil Nadu State Police under the influence by the New Delhi Establishment since 21st of May, following a peaceful candle vigil Mu’l’livaaykkaal Remembrance at Marina Beach in Chennai. The Indian Embassy officials responded with ‘surveillance threat’ by taking photos of the activists.
This is the first protest being organized by the Tamil Diaspora against the recent detention of Tamil Nadu activists. A series of protests are to follow in Switzerland and in other countries across the globe, the protesters said.
The protesters held placards condemning the Indian government for its unlawful arrest and accused the New Delhi Establishment for its collusion with genocidal Sri Lanka.

The world Tamils have declared the May 18 as the commemoration day for The Eezham Tamil people, who are subjected to structural genocide by the genocidal Sri Lankan state abetted by Indian, American and British imperialist forces, stated a communique issued by the organisers of the protest in Bern.
Some of the placards held by the protestors stated: “Activists detained under Goondas Act for commemorating Tamil genocide! India, is this your Democracy?” and “We Eelam Tamils stand in solidarity with 4 comrades and condemn the false charges on them”.
In the meantime, a similar solidarity protest has been organised by Eezham Tamils in the occupied homeland on 8th of June. Tamil National People’s Front (TNPF), led by Gajendrakumar Ponnambalam, is organising the protest in front of the Indian Consulate in Jaffna.

Two motorbikes and a number-plate belonging to another motorcycle have been recovered from abandoned wells in recently released former ‘High Security Zone’ in Kaangkeasanthu’rai (KKS) in Jaffna. A torture chamber operated by the occupying Sinhala military was earlier discovered in the same area, which comes under KKS South, J-235, village area (GS). The rotten motorbikes were recovered while the owner of the land, Mr Niranjan from Kuru Veethi, was clearing his recently released land to reconstruct the well. As soon as the nearby SL Police station was notified on the discovery, a white-van emerged from the military zone and two men in civil clothes forcefully removed the number plates from the two motorbikes, eyewitnesses said.

Shanmugalingam Shageevan, a former
civic member who leads uprooted peoples’ organization in Valikaamam
went to the SL Police in KKS and to the so-called Sri Lankan Human
Rights Commission in Jaffna. His complaints were not registered at both
the places, Mr Shageevan told TamilNet on Thursday.
In the meantime, a lone number-plate was recovered from another locality in the same area and the owner of the motorbike was a civilian in I’nuvil whose motorbike was robbed by the SL military in 2007.
The occupying SL military was deploying the motorbikes that were either robbed or the motorbikes belonging to the victims of earlier white-van abductions to terrorize the people. Later, these bikes have been dumped into abandoned wells near the SL military intelligence camp situated in J-235 area.
The fact that white-van squad was still active and is pre-occupied with removing the traces has severely threatened the people who are resettling, Mr Shageevan said.
