OSLAP சான்று சமர்ப்பணம்OSLAP Evidentiary Submission
The OHCHR Sri Lanka Accountability Project (OSLAP) is a continuous-intake mechanism, not a session cycle. There is no deadline to miss — only a window to be first and thorough. This is the public template of the evidentiary dossier TLTE is preparing, explicitly framed to support formal Requests for Assistance from third-country prosecutorial units exercising universal jurisdiction.
Chemmani / Ariyalai Siththupaththi Hindu Cemetery, Nallur, Jaffna. Court-supervised excavation under the Jaffna Magistrate's Court, presiding Magistrate Selvanayagam Leninkumar. Judicial-record figure at day 96 (28 Jul 2026): 480 sets of remains identified across phases 1–3, 479 fully exhumed; third phase halted that date, resumption reported for 4 Aug 2026. The figure stood at 467 at day 93 (22 Jul 2026). Of the 1999 phase, 8 of 15 remain un-returned to families per UN Joint Allegation Letter AL LKA 1/2025.
Anchored to HRCSL's own Fact-Finding Report of September 2025 (documents worker intimidation and record gaps) and Sri Lanka Brief's September 2025 coverage (documents domestic carbon-dating and forensic-expertise gaps). No independent forensic body engaged on the site as of 22 Jul 2026.
Submission is explicitly framed to support formal Requests for Assistance from prosecutorial units in jurisdictions that already exercise universal jurisdiction on Sri Lanka casework (Germany's Federal Public Prosecutor / Generalbundesanwalt; the Netherlands' National Public Prosecutor's Office; Argentina's federal courts). TLTE does not initiate prosecutions; it preserves the evidence layer.
22 Jul 2026 EU diplomatic delegation walked the site under Jaffna court authorisation: Ambassadors Carmen Moreno (EU), Damiano Francovigh (Italy), Dr Felix Neumann (Germany), Rémi Lambert (France), Wiebe De Boer (Netherlands). Association of Relatives of Enforced Disappearances handed a written memorandum renewing the demand for an independent international investigation.
OSLAP mandate under HRC res. 46/1, 51/1, 57/1, renewed 60/1 (Oct 2025, extended two years). UN Special Procedures Joint Allegation Letter AL LKA 1/2025 (four mandate-holders, 21 Jul 2025). UN High Commissioner Volker Türk's on-site visit to Chemmani (25–26 Jun 2025).
No names of survivors, families, or protesters. No TLTE-aggregated count. No claim of cause of death, command chain, unit, or individual perpetrator. No operational-security material. No survivor intake — routed to ITJP, PEARL, OMP, and the UK 999 / Refuge line.
A public template of a Geneva-facing evidentiary dossier. The submission is filed via credentialed counsel, not from this surface.
A future in which every diaspora archive's evidence layer routes cleanly into standing UN mechanisms, and every third-country prosecutor has a published route in.
