Disappearance of Prageeth Eknaligoda (2010)
The January 2010 enforced disappearance of cartoonist and journalist Prageeth Eknaligoda — subject of a UN Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances determination and a continuing domestic case.
Eknaligoda is the second named-individual exception in /case — again because the UN Working Group's determination is on the public record in his name and his family's. TLTE links the determination and routes inquiries to ITJP, PEARL and the family's chosen counsel.
§1The UN determination
The UN Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances has issued determinations and the case is one of the most-cited individual examples in OHCHR Sri Lanka reporting. The case is also part of the wider OMP register.
