The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights is calling for an independent, international investigation of possible war crimes committed during the last few months of the war in Sri Lanka. The UN agency says there should be a full inquiry into what did or did not happen during the final stages of the country's long-lasting civil war.

The Council blamed war atrocities on the Tamil Tiger rebels and exonerated the government of similar crimes. It rejected demands for an independent inquiry into the conduct of the war.
