CWN Editor's Note: Priests and religious in Jaffna, Sri Lanka, took part in a peaceful demonstration on July 30 to demand an international investigation into the Chemmani mass graves.
The graves date to 1995-96, when the army retook control of an area held by rebels during the Sri Lankan Civil War (1983-2009).
