Nelliyadi massacre 04 May 2006
Nelliyadi is a small town near the eastern coast of the Jaffna district. On 4 May 2006, seven young men were on their way to a friend’s party in a three-wheeler. They were in a jolly mood and were carrying alcohol with them for use in the party. Just before their three-wheeler neared the Nelliyadi junction army camp, a grenade was thrown into the camp. The military blindly opened revenge fire, killing all the seven friends.
