Head of the Wanni Sub Commission for Peace and Justice of the Catholic Church Rv.Fr. James Paththinathar and Rv.Fr. Benedict have jointly sent the memorandum stating that people were uprooted and rendered homeless due to indiscriminate artillery shelling and aerial attacks jointly by all the three armed forces causing the displacement of the people. They were languishing in jungle terrains without any basic needs including food, clothing, medicines, water and shelter.
