We can make use this opportunity to Nominate 3 Doctors Detained by SL Government FOR "Medical Marvel" Hero.

Dr. V. Shanmugarajah, Medical Superintendent at Mullivaaykkaal field hospital.
Dr. Thurairaja Varatharajah, Regional Director of Health Services in Mullaitivu

Why does your nominee deserve recognition as a CNN Hero in this category?

Please describe in detail your nominee's specific accomplishment and what was involved in achieving it. Be sure to include the dates of the activities. (200 word maximum)
He is one of the three brave doctors worked for the government health services in Vanni region, Sri Lanka until he was detained by Sri Lankan Military on 15th of May 2009.His services helped to save the lives of tens of thousands of innocent people who were deprived from accessing any medical support. In a situation where no sufficient staffs, drugs, operation facilities while their make shift clinics came under regular bombardment, he served the people with dedication, passion and hope without fearing for his own life.

When Sri Lankan government has restricted independent journalists or monitors from reporting on the situation and prevented actual information reaching outside world and also other parts of Sri Lanka, these brave doctors regularly reported the situation to the international media about the situation. Their information was one of the primary sources for the world to understand the human catastrophe and woke up even belatedly. All three doctors are now being detained by Sri Lankan Government many believe in reprisal for providing information about the civilians in the conflict zone. He has made a significant contribution to save lives of innocent people, promote human rights and elevate his beloved profession.

Is there a specific incident or turning point that motivated your nominee to take action?(100 word maximum)


He has been a dedicated doctor always wanted to serve people deprived from accessing medical support. The recent onslaught of Sri Lankan military against the rebels had uprooted the entire Tamil population lived in the Vanni region of Sri Lanka and were forced to live in a narrow strip of land for the final months of the war (Jan – May 2009). More than 300,000 people lived in that narrow strip without proper basic facilities and medical support delinking from outside world. During this time, he provided most needed medical services and helped to save thousands of lives.

How have your nominee's efforts made a difference for the better? Please describe their impact, potential impact and how they have inspired others.(100 word maximum)

He made a huge difference in the actual casualty figures and in the perception of the real ground situation

to the world. By banning all media and outsiders including NGOs, UN, Sri Lankan Government hid the actual situation and casualty figures. Through interviews, video clips, pictures, reports, these doctors directly interacted with international organizations and brought out the real human tragedy. In a situation where at least 40 people died every day and many hundreds wounded as per UN, without the support of these doctors, the numbers would have been much more and would have led to total annihilation.
Is there anything else that makes your nominee exceptional or unique? (100 word maximum)
World Medical Association, Physicians for Human Rights, Amnesty International, Committee to Protect Journalists and many other organizations urged Sri Lankan Government to release these doctors who braved their lives to server people. Unesco is considering to recommend Félix Houphouët-Boigny Peace Prize for their valuable services. Except Sri Lankan Medical Association and Authorities, the entire world is urging an action in one voice. It means the world valued their services. A recognition of them as CNN Heroes will further strengthen the case and will be a lesson similar countries that this approach is unacceptable in this 21st century world.
