Sri Lanka's Terrorism Investigation Division (TID) has summoned a human rights activist in Mullaitivu to attend their office on November 5, 2018. 

The activist, Thambaiya Logeswaran, known as Mullai Easan is reportedly a former member of the LTTE. 

The reason for the meeting is not yet known. 

The incident comes just days after the return of the war crimes accused former president, Mahinda Rajapaksa to the political scene following his appointment to the role of prime minister. 

It is one of a number of TID summons of Tamils in recent weeks.

Sri Lanka is one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a journalist. Tamil journalists are particularly at threat, with at least 41 media workers known to have been killed by the Sri Lankan state or its paramilitaries during and after the armed conflict.

Despite the risks, our team on the ground remain committed to providing detailed and accurate reporting of developments in the Tamil homeland, across the island and around the world, as well as providing expert analysis and insight from the Tamil point of view

We need your support in keeping our journalism going. Support our work today.
