The people of Sri Lanka have suffered immeasurable, untold violations of their fundamental human rights. The worst of these abuses are horrific acts of torture and the systematic abuse of women and children. 
Much work needs to done to begin the process of seeking justice for the victims and survivors.

Rough Translation:
"I have 10 to 15 wastepickers who supply me with recyclables. But they are always being harassed by the police and other people, who tell them not to do this work. I tell the wastepickers to tell such people: 'Give me a job that will pay enough, and I will quit this profession.' Society does not consider our work a profession; they consider it shameful. There is no awareness about our situation."
