Mahinda Rajapaksa Esq.
President of Sri Lanka
We demand that all political prisoners to be released immediately. That will indicate very clearly that your government is serious of implementing the LLRC recommendations. Implementation of these recommendations is generally considered as the fist step towards solving the Tamil national problem. We know that as an opposition leader you were in the forefront of the campaign to release political prisoners after the rebellion in 88/89. We expect the sympathy you showed to the (mostly Sinhala) prisoners then will also be shown to the (mostly Tamil) prisoners today.
Movement for the release of political prisoners
The stories shared in the comments prove that justice for these individuals cannot wait any longer. Call your local representative today and demand they push for the immediate release of all political prisoners.

The momentum behind this demand is growing and proving that we cannot be ignored. Post this link on your Facebook page today and email your representative to hold them accountable for these releases.
