(COLOMBO) - NewsX accesses chilling visual evidence of death of destruction in Sri Lanka.

The video report below reveals a chilling account of a Sri Lankan soldier confessing to war crimes. The Sinhala Buddhist government of Sri Lanka has waged a long war against the Tamil culture.

While the fighting ceased with the defeat of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) in 2009, the abuse of the population did not end.

Sri Lanka has denied its role in the Genocide of Tamils for five years, now they are in Geneva in front of the United Nations Human Rights Council answering to a long list of egregious crimes against humanity, almost all of which were perpetrated upon the Tamil people, who are Hindu, Christian and Muslim.

The United Nations state that roughly 40,000 Tamils died, but other sources place the number of dead and disappeared at 160,000.

The Sri Lankan soldier says the army used chemical weapons on trapped civilians at the end of the country's civil war.

Soldiers boast of burning skin of Tamilians with a substance similar to white phosphorous.

White phosphorous is forbidden from use on civilian populations under international law.

Srilanka used all the weapons of mass destruction against the Tamils of Srilanka.The problem is no International country didn't want to speak due to their self interest and Geo-political reasons. There is no justice in the World, if the community has no government of its own.
