Sri Lanka will not grant visas to United Nations investigators probing war crimes allegedly committed during the island's decades-long separatist conflict, President Mahinda Rajapaksa said on Tuesday.
"We will not allow them into the country," said Mr Rajapakse, who is under international pressure to cooperate with the UN-mandated investigation.
Sri Lanka has refused to accept the authority of the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC), which voted in March to probe allegations that the military killed 40,000 civilians in the final months of the separatist war, which ended in 2009.
