Towards the end of the decades-long Sri Lankan civil war, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) had effectively formed a functioning military state, with its own infrastructure, in the northern Tamil majority region of the island. And the town of Kilinochchi was its capital. The LTTE had been fighting against the Sri Lankan government – which serves the interests of the Sinhalese majority – in an attempt to see the formation of an independent state, known as Tamil Eelam. And peace process negotiations had been taking place over 2002 to 2006.

Call to address Indigenous prison crisis

A TOP criminal lawyer has called on the government to take bold steps to address the over-representation of First Nations people in Queensland jails after research found Indigenous incarceration was increasing. Potts Lawyers founding director Bill Potts (pictured) said the state risked condemning generations of people to life behind bars unless it addressed things that led to crime like poverty, mental health issues, addiction, unemployment and violence. Research released this week by the Queensland Sentencing Advisory Council found that fewer Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people committed offences across the board but that they were more likely to wind up behind bars.
