While this campaign is in support of the work of Tamil relatives of the disappeared protesting across the North and East of Sri Lanka, it is important not to forget the ongoing plight of the many thousands of Sinhala and Muslim relatives of the disappeared across the country. Recent months have seen many powerful acts of solidarity between members of these communities in the search for their missing. The establishment of a credible and effective Office of Missing Persons (OMP) will be a vital step for delivering truth and justice to all of those in Sri Lanka affected by enforced disappearances.
