Govt. to respond to Amnesty International report 'appropriately'

Responding to a report released Wednesday by the Amnesty International (AI) on Sri Lanka’s Lessons Learned and Reconciliation Commission (LLRC) the Sri Lankan government said it will respond to the report appropriately after carefully studying it.

The External Affairs Ministry official has said that since AI is an independent body it can put out any reports as they wish.

“AI is an independent body and can put out any reports that it wishes. After having looked at the report carefully we will respond appropriately,” a Ministry official has told local media.
