[Video Attached]Tamil Australians held a Multi-faith Candlelight Vigil in Hyde Park North, Sydney today. The vigil was to pray for the civilians undergoing untold suffering in Sri Lanka and to show solidarity with the Tamil Australian families who have loved ones killed, missing or detained in the conflict zone on Northern Sri Lanka. 

Religious leaders from different faiths said prayers for the 7000 civilians killed, 14000 injured within the last 90 days and the thousands of civilians who are unaccounted for or are in out of bounds military run concentration camps and “screening centres”. 

 

Seven huge candles were lit, each in rememberance of 1000 dead Tamils
