Given a Snack and then Taken Out and Shot
The last moments of a helpless boy, 12, who was 'executed by Sri Lankan army because his father was a Tamil Tiger leader' Disturbing new images have emerged of the dead body of the 12-year-old son of a Tamil leader that researchers say could prove he was executed by Sri Lankan government forces. The photographs of Balachandran Prabhakaran, son of Velupillai Prabhakaran, head of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, were taken in May 2009 at the end of the government's conflict with the rebels. The first pictures appear to show the child in the custody of Sri Lankan forces and he is seen sitting on a bench wrapped in a blanket and eating some food. But photographs taken hours later on the same camera show him lying on the ground, topless and his chest riddled with bullet holes. He has five holes to his chest and experts say he was shot at close range. The pictures, which feature in documentary No Fire Zone, show the boy was alive when he was captured and was executed later, says the film's director Callum Macrae. 'They show he was held, and even given a snack, before being taken and executed in cold blood.'  ·  ·  · |
