Ajith agrees
Agreeing, deputy minister and former deputy foreign minister - Ajith P. Perera says that he too, is strongly against the proposed Hybrid courts.

Domestic courts?

“The commitment by the new Government to pursue accountability through a domestic process is commendable… but the unfortunate reality is that Sri Lanka’s criminal justice system is not yet ready,” the OHCHR report states. 

“First and foremost is the absence of any reliable system for victim and witness protection. Second is the inadequacy of Sri Lanka’s domestic legal framework to deal with international crimes of this magnitude. The third challenge is the degree to which Sri Lanka’s security sector and justice system have been distorted and corrupted by decades of emergency, conflict and impunity,” it adds.
