Account from a relative:
Mother:
I had five children. Daughter Anoja was the third one. My husband also died due to illness. I brought up my children alone and amidst poverty. Anoja was loved by all. She was also very kind. All of my relatives called her the ‘Lotus bud’. She was very intelligent. She was studying GCE Advance Level in Vidyanantha College. She went with all of her friends to attend a leadership workshop. It was a few days after she left to attend the workshop. She was killed in the morning when the Kfir attacked their location, on 14 August 2006. We didn’t hear about it as soon it happened. We heard about it from the girls
who escaped injury. They told us that Anoja was alive with some injuries. But by about 12.00am, we were informed by school administration that Anoja succumbed to her injuries. They brought her body that evening. There were injuries to all parts of her body. She was killed brutally by this government.
