Violations of human rights in Sri Lanka Human Rights Committee – 137th Session – February – March 2023
CAP Liberté de Conscience (France) and the Brussels-based NGO Human Rights Without Frontiers are deeply concerned about the deterioration of human rights in a wide range of areas in Sri Lanka.
In the last few years, the Supreme Court of Sri Lanka and the Human Rights Commission have received about 15,000 complaints annually regarding the violation of the fundamental rights guaranteed in Chapter III, 10-14 of the 1978 Constitution. All these complaints are against executive and administrative actions of government officials.
