An eyewash. Sri Lankans know what happened after Arangalaya and how the protestors are hunted when the people who assaulted the protestors are roaming free.

Yes you are doing for the past13 years domestic mechanism. Hats off, to a Muslim fanatic who has considerable part for the fall of this country by helping criminals related to cases

Aday Thambi, how many times has SL sung this song and never delivered? Don't you have a morsel of self respect to utter this again at an international forum? Didn't your mother and father teach you some basic principles in life to follow, even though Rajapakse's ways show their parents are from brothels and will pimp for anything.

South African Truth Commission should be the ideal pattern to be followed in Sri Lanka, reconciliation among communities, equal opportunities, recognition of merits in all spheres of education and employment should be implemented.

What an idiot! Doesn’t he know Sri Lanka do not have the intelligence and justice to carry out a home grown solution. Pigs will fly if this fellow can organise and carry out a domestic mechanism. Grow up man. Are you running scared to get international help ? Even UK got the help of Senator Mitchell from USA to help out Northern Ireland problem

Ha Ha Ha! It is not Tamil Diaspora but also the member from the Aragalaya. The president with no public mandate and the defence secretary who is working hard to cling to his job and perks are after the Aragalaya members. The Aragalaya will continue until a president with a public mandate is appointed. The UNHRC will have to support this endeavour.

so such a mechanism did not exist in SL before and Prof.GL Peieris has been lying for the past 13 years at the UN

And such a mechanism would be headed by the same people who committed those crimes-SLPP members and the likes Sarath Fonseka and Jangi Sarath

The aragalaya protesters weren't babies... the harm they did to the country... blocked tourist travelling on sight seeing and made them walk, barged into presidents house, tried attacking the parliament... are all these good. Dam waste of time created by the Aragalaya donkeys...

I think Geneva initially looked for domestic mechanisms and gave some time. As it did not work they established other offices. Probably difficult to convince Geneva now.

There is no terrorism in country and he is making the world look like that Sri lanka is not stable in his zoom talk and repealing the tourism on rotest, Also not letting opportunity to serve country by young reflects a for the dominant terrorism for those in power.

Domestic Truth Mechanism? what a load of crap! Just in time before the resolution comes up on Thursday. Remember his presentation during the UNCHR opening session? It was an arrogant, egoistic, snubbish talk about only a domestic mechanism and no foreign monitoring intervention. These idiots who have been representing Sri Lanka over the years have scant respect to following up on their promises. The only way forward is to clean up our corrupt political and economic landscape, even if it means having to swallow a bitter pill. He should stop playing to the gallery - the pohottuwas and their followers. First of all, he should be held accountable for burying all legal cases against the ex-President and the Rajapakse family.

Simply No trust in domestic mechanism. The world knows how the country was submerged into racism on language and religious grounds for the last 50 yrs or so. Unfortunately, we still have politicians who take advantage of these divisions.

We are a people and our governments that since independence has wrecked violence on our minority fellow citizens citizens who in desperation took up arms. We now are telling the diaspora groups that our violence is legitimate and your self defence is wrong. Unless we bring about systems that empower and value all our descent into greater poverty and vulnerability will be irreversible.

Born Lier,betraying the Nation, Domestic truth seeking, what a joke, it is obvious to the world what is happening here with the peaceful protesters being hunted and unjustly humiliated, and punished like terrorist or criminals. The perpetrators are roaming freely.

Laughing stock to the world This has been on going since 2011 They can't seek truth at home for a simple thing now want to probe a war that raged over 30 years I don't even know why UNHRC invites SL to have own version which is always flawed and non committal

How ironic, Mr Haircut, or the one who asks creditor with his weasel words of get a hair cut wants truth. I don't believe anything he says about improving matters with government past or current suppression activity, and instead expect he is just doing lip service fearing for the obvious outcome from the UNHCR.

DOMESTIC TRUTH SEEKING MECHANISM!! Very familiar phraseology!! Unfortunately domestic mechanisms are anathema to find truth - they have been a SHAM since independence unfortunately and needs and independent arbiter or atleast a hybrid composition of sizeable foreign personnel with Jurisprudence experience to be constituted!!??

Aiding and Abetting a criminal activity whether it is on individual, group or Government must not be named by race or religion. Race and Religion is not responsible for the crimes committed for the past 70 years, rather the corrupt individuals together with the so called Constitutional Governments has brought us to this situation, Locally as well as Internationally. This is the Bitter Truth in my Opinion.
