War abuses report given to Sri Lankan President
A Sri Lankan commission that investigated alleged abuses during the country's civil war delivered its final report to President Mahinda Rajapaksa yesterday, amid rising international pressure for an independent inquiry.
The report was not immediately released to the media. The government appointed the commission last year to investigate possible war crimes in the final stages of the war with separatist Tamil Tiger rebels. AP
