Continuing Pressure In Sri Lankan Cartoonist Case

It's amazing to me that we're seeing actual updates in the quest to find out what happened to Sri Lankan cartoonist Prageeth Ekneligoda and exploring whatever justice might be done in the matter. That struck me as the kind of case that never gets solved. Ekneligoda went missing before a 2010 presidential election due, it was thought, to his non-cartoon journalistic exploits. It's the kind of brutal happenstance that frequently never gets looked into because of the delicate political back-and-forth involved. Family and advocates have kept the pressure on, and we're actually far into the other side of finding out who is directly responsible and figure out what might be done at this late date.
