Land and human rights experts say ethnic Tamils may never get back their land that was confiscated by government forces during the civil war
A Sri Lankan man holds a placard during a protest, demanding the release of Tamil lands that are occupied by the military, in Colombo, Sri Lanka. August 21, 2018.
"It is unrealistic to expect that these lands would ever be released because the government would continue to maintain permanent military bases," he said. With people returning after long absences – as in Sri Lanka – there can be difficulties with proving ownership, military control, occupation by others, and re-zoning, said Menique Amarasinghe, head of UNHCR's Sri Lanka office."If the military cannot release all of the land, then there is a need to clearly identify which lands will not be released, and provide just compensation.
