Since the appointment of new regime we are updating more news on what happened to people abducted from the white vans
During the Rajapaksa regime people abducted in the white van were taken up to Girithale military camp and detained, tortured and murdered at this camp.
Bodies of these victims were hidden inside graveyards located outstations.
Mervin Silva, Minister of the Rajapaksa regime stated former Defence Secretary Gotabaya Rajapaksa named as godfather of white van abduction.
Several groups were appointed to abduct milliners, journalists, leading businessmen, landowners, trade union activists, non government activists and people against the Rajapaksa.
At first they tie the eyes of victims with black tape and detain them at the Girithale army camp.
According to the advice from the Gotabaya Rajapaksa this abduction team will contact the family members of these victims and demand for large amount of ransom.
Once they receive money this abduction group will release victims while at abandoned lands.
Those to unable to pay the ransom money are forced to sign in the white paper to illegally seize their properties.
If they failed to do so they would be brutally tortured and murder later on.
Bodies of these victims would be transported to grave yards located at the outstation and hidden inside them
