It is mentioning worthy that the issue of war crimes and human rights violation involved during the conflict in the past three decades .must never be used as political tool against certain groups or parties.
Participants of the conference emphasized that the commitments of current government to international community emanating from the agenda of war on terror, has led to the
sharing of power with a large number of persons suspected of war crime and human rights violation. This put the government in unsuitable position in bringing these suspects to justice. Therefore, until favourable political changes in the future, for the time being; the national and international human right organisations must try to draw the attention of international community through seminars, conferences, issuing reports and statements about this problem.
