TNPF remembers Sencholai massacre in Batticaloa

The Tamil National People’s Front held an event to mark 12 years since the Sencholai massacre, at their Batticaloa office earlier today.

The event saw a two-minute silence and lighting of a commemorative flame, before flowers were laid before photographs of the massacred schoolgirls.

TNPF officials addressed the event, remembering the 53 massacred schoolgirls and 3 teachers who were killed in the Sri Lankan air force bombing raid 12 years ago.

To date, no-one has been held to account for the deaths.
