The British Tamil Conservatives have called on the British government to impose travel bans and seize foreign assets on Sri Lankans suspected of committing war crimes and crimes against humanity, reported The Island.
Arujuna Sivananthan from the BTC said the group will focus their attention on the UNHRC session in March as Sri Lanka will not have a credible independent inquiry by March and neither will it abide by any eventual resolution passed.
"This is why BTC is lobbying for travel bans and asset seizures of those alleged to have committed war crimes and crimes against humanity," Sivananthan said.
BTC also rejected the idea of a Truth and Reconciliation Commission "in its entirety", the paper said.
"It is an attempt to circumvent future war crime prosecutions in the International Criminal Court," it said.
