Sri Lanka: Reject ‘Political Victimization’ Findings Government Seeks to Absolve Allies for Abuses, Prosecute Officials Pursuing Justice Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa, center, arrives in parliament to address the ceremonial inauguration of the session in Colombo, Sri Lanka, January 3, 2020. © 2020 AP Photo/Eranga Jayawardena, File (New York) – Sri Lanka’s parliament should reject a resolution to exonerate officials implicated in human rights abuses and to prosecute police and prosecutors investigating them, Human Rights Watch said today. Adopting the resolution, brought before parliament on April 9, 2021, would further undermine the independence of the judiciary and rule of law, which have been severely weakened under the administration of President Gotabaya Rajapaksa.
