The NPP government having their November memorials for those dead during the JVP insurrections, yet not applying the same standard when it comes to the North and East, is very telling about how even the supposedly 'progressive', actually aren't.
CCTV footage shows police officers removing a statue of Rasaiah Parthipan, better known as Thileepan, from a memorial site in Nallur, Jaffna, in the early hours of Sunday (27).
Thileepan was a member of the LTTE who died in 1987 after a hunger strike over a series of demands.
The statue was removed a day after commemorations marking the 39th anniversary of his death concluded at the site. Police have yet to publicly state the reason or legal basis for the removal.

It's complex, well-connected, and systemic.
