CHENNAI: The MDMK leader Vaiko on Thursday opposed the resolution in the United Nations Human Rights Council allowing Sri Lanka to conduct a domestic criminal probe into the findings of the three-member UNHRC panel on the human rights violations and war crimes against island Tamils.

"Today is a black day in the history of UN as the justice for Tamils has been murdered. The accused Lankan government has been made the judge by an unjust resolution by the US, Britain, Macedonia and Montenegro and supported by India and Pakistan. Tamils with self respect will not accept the resolution," he said in a statement here.

"UN secretary general Ban-ki-Moon had recommended that the massacres in Syria should be enquired by the International Court of Justice. But Tamils have been left as orphans," he said and added that Tamils should fight the obstacles and conspiracies.
