This year's event focuses on the plight of Sri Lankan journalist, J.S. Tissainayagam, who has been detained arbitrarily by the Terrorist Investigation Division (TID) of the Sri Lankan Police in Colombo since 7 March 2008. He is being held on suspicion of involvement with the armed opposition group, the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, but has yet to be charged with any crime. Mr. Tissainayagam is suffering from a serious eye condition that can lead to blindness and has been granted access to his lawyer only twice since he has been detained.
