SOS ON BEHALF OF THE IDPs IN MULLIVAIKAL.

I want the Government of Sri Lanka and the International Community to take this message of mine as an SOS coming from the civilians of the so called No Fire Zone. Civil administration has broken down there, and the medical officers too had withdrawn. There is no one to regulate the activities there including the food supply and medical care. Hundreds, may be even thousands, are left to die on the streets and bunkers, without anyone to attend on them. There is no food and water and the people are starving.

I plead with the Government and the International Community to take my massage seriously and to do their best to rush a medical team to treat the injured and also to arrange to drop food parcels from the air and save the several thousands from death by starvation. If every thing fails and no response comes from anywhere, the Government of Sri Lanka or a friendly country can request India to rush a medical team and food for the unfortunate victims who are suffering for no fault of theirs. I strongly urge that this massage be taken seriously as one coming not from an insane man.
