"Wherever you turn round, it's dead bodies," British medic Damilvany Gnanakumar, detained for four months in one of Sri Lanka's Tamil internment camps, describes to Jonathan Miller from Channel 4, the bleakness of the conditions she found there.
Channel 4 foreign affairs correspondent Jonathan Miller has talked to a British Tamil Damilvany who knows how bleak conditions are in the camps, after being detained in one of them for four months.
"Dead bodies everywhere," recalls Damilvany Gnanakumar. "Wherever you turn round, it's dead bodies."
She estimates that 20,000 civilians may have died in the final five-day onslaught by Sri Lankan government forces - a figure also cited by some relief agencies, but one dismissed as unsubstantiated by Sri Lanka.
And she says many people inside the camps are dismayed that the world has done so little to help. "After all this happened, they lost their trust... They don't feel safe to speak out. "They don't trust the international (community) now because they think OK, all this happened - nothing happened, the international (community) didn't come and help us."
