Hejaaz Hizbullah responds to Namal Rajapaksa and ask: “Are Tamils in the North are inherently dangerous?”

In a scotching respond to SLPP MP Namal Rajapaksa for his X post on the removal of Katkolam Army Camp, well-known HR activist and leading lawyer Hejaaz Hizbullah has asked ” Are  Tamils in the North inherently dangerous?”

Namal Rajapaksa’s X post:

“According to reports, an army camp in the North has been withdrawn, for land to be released back to civilians and many more such camps are to be withdrawn in coming months. While the release of lands is not an issue if it is done in consultation with the security forces, it should not be done at the cost of compromising national security. SL fought 30 yrs of terrorism & today all communities enjoy freedom at the cost of thousands of lost lives. It is of utmost importance that national security is maintained whether it is in the North or South.”

And Hejaaz response:

“There is such a lot of racism packed into this tweet. It states implicitly that the Tamils in the North are inherently dangerous and that Army camps are needed to keep them in check. The Tamil separatist struggle has a history, a cause and a reason. Understand that.”
