Government forces consistently deny all the charges of mass rape, with one senior army official saying the following in 2010: Sex slavery and mass rape of Tamils by government forces peaked at the end of the war in 2009, and persisted in the post-war era, with human rights groups describing it as 'systematic'. Many rapes went unreported during the conflict due to various factors, including intimidation from the perpetrators, impunity for the crime, and the severe stigma attached to it in conservative Tamil society.

Tamil refugees who fled to India have also been victims of frequent rape and sex slavery by Indian security guards and intelligence police. Some LTTE members accused of rape faced execution from the leadership. The LTTE has been noted for its general lack of use of sexual violence, though there have been isolated instances of rape of Tamils by LTTE members. Other groups which committed rape against Tamils included the Indian Peace Keeping Force and Sri Lankan Police. Both Tamil females and males were targeted for rape, including children. įollowing the outbreak of war, rape was used by the almost entirely Sinhalese Sri Lankan armed forces, in an attempt to collectively punish the Tamil population, who were often seen as being supportive of the LTTE. įurther rapes of Tamils were carried out by Sinhalese mobs during the 1977, 19 anti-Tamil pogroms. This continued in the 1960s with the deployment of the Sri Lankan Army in Jaffna, who were reported to have molested and occasionally raped Tamil women.

The first instances of rape of Tamil women by Sinhalese mobs were documented during the 1958 anti-Tamil pogrom. Sexual violence against Tamils in Sri Lanka has occurred repeatedly during the island's long ethnic conflict.
