Despite the panel’s declaration not to visit  the country, we call the UN to independently and freely gather  first-hand accounts about the atrocities committed from the very  population of the Vanni region, who will be able to depict the reality  of the massacres,” US based LTTE activist and a member of the LTTE  Transnational Government Visvanathan Rudrakumarn said in an email. The LTTE however raised concern regarding the length of the  investigation saying the scheduled four month period of investigation by  a small panel of three seems to be too short to guarantee a just  evaluation of the large scale of crimes committed last year. “We therefore request the UN to extend its period of investigation to be  able to draw an adequate report to a situation that is often called as  the worst contemporary form of violation of international law,”  Visvanathan Rudrakumarn said Dailymirror</blockquote>
