Threatened for reporting sand mining news!

Threatened for reporting sand mining news!

Mr. Achchudan, who lives in Trincomalee, has lodged a complaint with the Human Rights Commission (HRC) alleging that he was threatened by the news of the escalating illegal sand mining in Trincomalee.

Achchudan (42), a journalist residing at 56 CEB Road, Trincomalee, has stated in a telephone conversation in 2019 that this human rights violation had taken place.

Official and informal sand mining activities have increased in the Trincomalee District recently. He emphasized that the letter was not a signal of a formal antitrust inquiry into the allegations, but rather a signal of a formal antitrust inquiry into the allegations.

He also condemned such acts which are harmful to the environment.

Those who load sand have acquired enough money and authority to threaten journalists, while those who are supposed to protect resources are silently waiting.

Therefore, he called for the creation of an environment in which journalists can work freely against the restrictions on media activism.
