Govt. decides to reject UN rights chief’s report on Sri Lanka

 The Government of Sri Lanka has chosen to dismiss the report assembled by the United Nations Human Rights Commissioner Michelle Bachelet on supposed common freedoms infringement in Sri Lanka, says Minister Udaya Gammanpila. 

He said Sri Lanka's reaction to the report, which has just been submitted recorded as a hard copy, will be unveiled when Foreign Affairs Minister Dinesh Gunawardena tends to the UN Human Rights Council. 

The public authority chose to dismiss the report as it has been set up disregarding the orders given through goals 30/1 and 40/1 of the UN Human Rights Council, Minister Gammanpila noted. 

Further, the 17-page report just contains 02 pages that are as per the command gave on the Human Rights Commissioner, the Minister clarified. The excess substance of the report are malignantly focused on the public authority, in spite of their degree, he added. 

Moreover, the report has neglected to introduce tenable proof relating to the claims leveled at Sri Lanka, Minister Gammanpila said further. 

In the report distributed in late January, the UN rights boss had focused on that the disappointment of Sri Lanka to address past infringement has altogether uplifted the danger of basic freedoms infringement being rehashed. 

She additionally required an International Criminal Court examination concerning Sri Lanka's Tamil nonconformist clash and endorses on military authorities blamed for atrocities. 

"Homegrown activities for responsibility and compromise have over and again neglected to deliver results, all the more profoundly settling in exemption, and intensifying casualties' doubt in the framework," the report read. 

It proceeded to say that the public authority of President Gotabaya Rajapaksa has turned around certain advances made under past organizations in securing common freedoms.
