The UNHRC panel to probe alleged human rights abuses during final stages of armed conflict in Sri lanka will continue to seek access to the country despite its refusal to allow them into the nation.
The Office of High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) was empowered by the UNHRC resolution late March to carry out an independent investigation into alleged rights abuses during Sri lanka’s final stages of the war with the lTTE which ended in 2009.
In the terms of reference for the probe showed on the OHCHR website, it says it will continue to seek to engage with the Government of Sri lanka. The High Commissioner for Human Rights will continue to request for the team conducting the OHCHR Investigation on Sri lanka (OISl) to have access to the country.
