My colleague Sunesh, Basil Soosai's life is in danger.
Sunesh is working in Mannar district and serving as the coordinator of Mannar District Fisheries Solidarity Organization. He is active in many fields, including fisheries, IDPs, Families of the disappeared, Land rights groups, Citizen forum of Mannar, Fisheries Cooperative Federation in Mannar district and many more.
By now there were three attempts to abduct Sunesh and he was cleaver enough to escape all these times.
Again last 21st early morning around 1.30 am, some fellows came to his home and had asked him to come out from his home. Since he was on the way to Negombo where he was supposed to attend to National Land Convention while commemorating World Fisheries Day, organized by National Fisheries Solidarity Movement, NAFSO, this attempt was also a futile as he was not at home.
However, as Human Rights Defenders, we decided to approach various responsible agencies on Mannar urging the security of Sunesh.
Mannar SSP police, Divisional Secretary of Mannar and Army area Commander were some of the authorities whom we met and handed over the petitions urging security of Sunesh.
Bishop of Mannar Rt. Rev. Rayappu Joseph, Fr. Sebamalai the chair of Citizen Committee, A.Jesudasan, NAFSO coordinator, Brito Fernando, Chairperson of Families of Disappeared, Fredie Gamage of Meepura news web and several community members of Mannar were attended the work conducted at Mannar.
People registered their anger with a protest at Mannar too.
