Sri Lankans Plan Black January Protests For January 25

The Alliance Of Media Organizations, a Sri Lankan group dedicated to the rights of media people in that country, will mark their annual protest of rights abuses on January 25. This will be two years and a day since the last sighting of journalist/cartoonist Prageeth Eknaligoda, who is suspected of being kidnapped and killed before a pivotal election for some of the political work he'd done. The family of the cartoonist endured not only the loss of their loved one by massive resistance from authorities in terms of recognizing the missing man's status and searching for him.
