(The Guardian) - David Camerons car was surrounded by hundreds of Tamil protesters, who were held back by the military when they tried to hand him pictures of their missing loved ones, as he visited Sri Lankas war-scarred north. As world leaders gathered in Colombo for the Commonwealth summit, the British prime minister flew to the northern city of Jaffna to meet the regions new Tamil first minister, CV Vigneswaran, of the Tamil National Alliance, and people affected by the 25-year civil war. Shortly after arriving, Camerons convoy was mobbed by protesters, many of them women, hoping to highlight the disappearance of their relatives.
