VOICED: Tamil widows fear rape four years on from

The video discusses the struggles faced by Tamil war widows in northern Sri Lanka after the civil war ended in 2009. Despite the cessation of fighting, these women continue to face harassment, threats, and financial hardships. The presence of a heavy military and reports of violence, often attributed to the Sinhalese majority, exacerbate their insecurity. Government efforts to rebuild the country have not sufficiently addressed the needs of these widows, who remain marginalized and without adequate support.
