Stop the Hunt for War Heroes
This petition had 1,926 supporters
The Enforced Disappearance Act is a hunt for our war heroes and nothing else. We already have the necessary laws in our Penal Code that makes abductions, unlawful arrests, disappearances illegal.
By passing this Bill in our Parliament, we give other countries jurisdiction over our own citizens. Interestingly, this is to apply to agents of the State, which means it doesn't apply to members of the LTTE, but only to the Security Forces.
Let's protect those who gave their today for our tomorrow.
