This project arose from questions that I asked myself subsequent to a disturbing summer's research over one year ago. While in south India this past summer, I had the opportunity to speak with Tamil refugees who had fled Sri Lanka during the previous few months. I was deeply dismayed to find that many of them had fled a United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) camp designed to provide safety within Sri Lanka for the persecuted Tamil population. 1 Forces of the Sri Lankan Government's army had begun to arbitrarily take people from the UNHCR's camp. Many of those had returned with tales of torture, and still others had not returned at all
