Legal Aid for War Heroes

  • Email

http://ranavirufund.org/images/Sgt_Rathnayake.jpg

Sgt: Sunil Rathnayake has been sentenced to death by a Sri Lankan court on alleged war crime during the war again LTTE terrorists. Sgt: Rathnayake and his team has played a key role in the Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol (LRRP) division in Sri Lanka Army to neutralise key LTTE terrorist rings and leaders.

However, after many years Sgt: Rathnayake and many other soldiers who were actively involved in destroying terrorist targets are now facing legal actions against them. Sgt: Rathnayake is now sentenced to death by the court.

Ranaviru Fund's intention is by no means challenging the court decision but to provide necessary assistance (legal and otherwise) to Sgt: Rathnayake and his family to legally challenge the decision against him. In this campaign Ranaviru Fund has joined hands with Global Sri Lankan Forum to support those who brought Peace to Sri Lanka after 30 long years.

Ranaviru Fund appeal for funds from all donors and well wishers to support this worthy cause.

You are able to make your donations online using the secure CharityChoice payment option detailed in our Support page.

We sincerely thank you for your generous donations and support extended to 'Heroes of Our Time'. We will provide detailed information on this campaign in our website including all accounts.
