Missing persons panel seeks more time
The Missing Persons Commission headed by retired Justice Maxwell Paranagama, has requested the government to extend its term by a year from February 15, 2016 as it still has thousands of cases to investigate, the New Indian express reported.
Justice Paranagama said on Tuesday, that out of the 14,000-odd representations from civilians before it, interviews have been conducted only in 5,000-odd cases so far.
The commission was set up during the Mahinda Rajapaksa regime on August 15, 2013, and its term has since been extended more than once. In September 2015 the UN human rights chief, Prince Zeid, threw a bombshell by asking the government to wind it up and replace it with a more credible body. But Colombo paid no heed to this demand as the October 2015 UNHRC joint resolution on Lanka made no mention of it.

Yes, this good because according to unconfirmed information some missing people live in countries like Canada and India.
The missing persons were also fed into the incinerators gifted by the Republic of China.
40,000 persons from the voters list that was compiled in 1992 were not present in the voters list that was prevalent in 2010.
Where did this people go? to Canada? to Europe? or were they disposed in the incinerators that were gifted by the Republic of China?
The next Channel 4 TV presentation will be on the Chinese incinerators that were established in the Nanthi Kadal lagoon in May 2009. That TV presentation will show bodies being loaded fro tractors to the incinerator.
That TV presentation will be the last nail in the coffin.
