🚨 ‘Jail for a song?’ Protest grows over Tamil rapper's PTA detention
Calls for the release of Tamil rapper HipHop Sangee continued to grow this week, with Tamil civil society organisations planning a protest in Kilinochchi and parliamentarians from both Tamil and Sinhala parties raising concerns over his detention under Sri Lanka's Prevention of Terrorism Act (PTA).
The artist, whose real name is Sangeethsan Ganeskumar, was arrested and remanded after Sri Lankan authorities alleged that videos he shared on social media contained material supportive of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE).
As criticism of the arrest mounted, Jaffna and Kilinochchi District ITAK parliamentarian S. Shritharan shared a call for a public demonstration demanding the artist's release.
The protest, organised by the Kilinochchi District Union of Civil Organisations, is scheduled to take place on 6 June in front of the Old Kachcheri on the A9 Road in Kilinochchi.

Where Is the System?”
Verse 1
Bombs fall like rain on broken streets
Children counting fear instead of dreams
Hospitals burning, schools in dust
Hope is buried beneath the rust
Pre-Chorus
Screens are glowing, voices rise
But silence lives behind their eyes
Chorus
Where is the system to stop the pain?
Where is the voice to break these chains?
A thousand laws, a thousand cries
Still a thousand people die
We shout, we march, we pray, we try
But justice never shows up in time
Where is the system—tell me why?
Are we just waiting here to die?
⸻
Verse 2
Leaders watching from their towers high
Speaking words while the children die
Meetings held and papers signed
But blood keeps flowing, line by line
Pre-Chorus
Every channel, every screen
Says “This must stop”—but what does it mean?
Chorus
Where is the system to stop the pain?
Where is the force to break this chain?
A thousand groups, a thousand laws
Still no hand to stop the war
We raise our voices to the sky
But echoes are the only reply
Where is the system—tell me why?
Do we just watch another die?
⸻
Bridge (Mullivaikal reference, solemn and heavy)
We’ve seen this story once before
Bodies lying on the shore
Names erased, the truth denied
A genocide the world let slide
No shield came, no justice stood
No line was drawn for what is “good”
And now again, the pattern grows
In different lands, the same old woes
⸻
Breakdown (soft, almost spoken)
How many more?
How many lives before we learn?
How many cries before we turn…
And build something real?
⸻
Final Chorus (strong, collective call)
We need a system to guard each life
Not just words when there’s a knife
Not just laws that fade away
But something strong enough to stay
No more waiting, no more lies
No more watching people die
If we are human, we must try
To build a world where none must cry
Outro
Every life that’s born deserves
More than silence, more than words
Not tomorrow—start today
Build a system that saves… not prays
It is rare that a Sinhala voice speaks with such conviction.
This is Fr Jeewatha Peiris in Colombo this month, calling the killing of Tamils by Sri Lanka a genocide,
“History has proven it,” he said.
How many more voices like his will emerge from the South?
🪔 Memorial tree unveiled in Washington to honour victims of the Tamil genocide
Tamil Americans in the Washington, D.C. area marked the 17th anniversary of the Mullivaikkal genocide on 17 May with an interfaith memorial event and planted a memorial tree dedicated to Tamil lives lost during the armed conflict.
The event, held at 2 p.m., began at the Activity Center at Bohrer Park in Gaithersburg, Maryland, bringing together members of the Tamil community for speeches, prayers, presentations and remembrance activities. It concluded at nearby Observatory Park with a candlelight vigil, the unveiling of a memorial tree and the distribution of Mullivaikkal kanji.
A plaque installed in front of the newly planted tree reads, “In memory of Tamil lives lost during the Sri Lankan Civil War.”
