- Wishma Sandamali, a 33-year-old Sri Lankan woman, died in a Japanese detention centre in March of last year. Her death sparked debate on the treatment of the 1,500 asylum seekers currently in detention in #Japan. Many of them claim they are being treated inhumanely. Despite its economic might, Japan takes in few #refugees. In 2020, it accepted less than 100 asylum seekers, while France, whose population is half the size of Japan's, took in 24,000. Our correspondents report from the city of Nagoya, where Wishma died. #SriLanka

She initially agreed to return home after being detained for her criminal overstaying. It was the activists who incited her to fight and stay (her own crime) by submitting refugee applications without any merits. She would have all the medical care she wanted if she went home. The problems in this are: (1) She criminally overstayed her visa; (2) She refused to return to her home country after the immigration authorities ordered her to; (3) She used false and meritless reasons to unlimitedly submit refugee applications so that she could stay in the country limitlessly; (4) The immigration authorities ignored her request for medical care due to long-standing distrust in this individual. The Japanese immigration authorities had some problems, so did this individual. Through the latest legal revisions, the authorities can deport applicants who had been refused twice, and now they put medical professionals in all immigration detention facilities. The government has done everything to stop this from happening again. And to every of such applicants: just do not commit crimes.
😂criminal over stay this guy bearly wanna proof immigration haven’t done nothing wrong, you can’t get away from this blame your country had killed her and those murders are released by the court, we know what they did and real footage was out now, japan had killed her that is the truth
Underneath the bowing and pleasantries, there's a lot of abuse, legal rot and social negligence in Japan. RIP to Wishma.🕊️
She died 2 years ago everybody knows only now

I am Sri Lankan too. But if all the people living in the world thought and acted with humanity, this world could have been a more loving, beautiful and safe place.
You mean turn a blind eye to suit your peoples idiotic ideology.
Your people are loving😱LOL😂😂😂DELUSIONAL FREAK!
Maybe if people stayed where their visas said...😂
The reason for her refugee application was to escape violence from her Sri Lankan lover. Unfortunately, Japan is full of Sri Lankans who apply for refugee status for reasons that are not true refugees like this.
But it isn't crime do die .
@@sujeewamulvila5384 Overstaying visas is a crime.
@@jhca4671 Well said❗
Remember jr Jayawardena
A domestic abuse situation can't be used for an asylum case.
There is no point in pretending after something happened, you should have been more careful before it happened
Shocked at Japan’s humanitarianism!
Japan's immigration laws are flawed, and there is no limit to the number of times an illegal immigrant can apply for refugee status.
As a result, even illegal immigrants who are clearly not refugees end up staying in Japan for a long time while refusing to be deported to their home countries, even if their refugee applications are rejected many times.
This leads to long-term detention problems at Japanese immigration facilities. Illegal residents in Japan's immigration facilities refuse to be deported to their home countries and engage in resistance activities such as hunger strikes
By the way, if they say they will return to their home country, they will be released from immigration facilities in Japan immediately
Read about Junko Furuta and Japan's world war history, then you can understand the Japanese mentality.
Imagine summarizing entire race based of few incident, gotta love these ignorants acting as if Junko Furuta cases is only exclusive to Japan. I can assure you similar or worse cases are prevalent across the world, it’s simply they aren’t famous as the cases of Junko Furuta.
Wishma initially wanted to return home. However, both Wishma's mother and her sister refused to pay for Wishma's return home. Moreover, Wishma's mother and her sister even cut contact with Wishma.
During this time, the Sri Lankan government has also refused to pay for Wishma's return trip. During her lifetime, Wishma said at a Japanese immigration facility, "I hate Sri Lanka." Then she changed her wish to her stay in Japan
It's all about money, great story how we poor people being abused by the system blah blah when they're actually manipulating with the help of the bleeing hearts.
1:20 questions. 1) whats her visa? 2) where did these funds appear from?
Visa-free facility must be ended for Japanese passport holders. Let them undergo the same visa process which others do.
Why because their legal passport ,visa holders．
i agree, Japanese do not deserve special treatment at all
Sri Lankans whining won’t do anything mate 😂
Most japanese wont enter poor country and overstay to do toilet cleaning.
You guys meanwhile will try any opportunity to leave your own sinking ship economies.
0:41 she can rest in peace with our prayersif she agrees to fly back to her homeland?
The way Japan authorities treated her is very inhuman and unacceptable to basic human rights of universal laws, though Japan is so developed, where is human qualities ? I have taught her mathematics in her 16s as private tutor and she was highly talented student , I expected she would be a doctor.

Why are these people so keen to change laws in other people's countries rather than change their own laws so they don't need to go to other people's countries?
Maybe because the west meddles so much outside their own house that others can run theirs. 😉🤔
Failing to meet international standards in human rights should never be accepted anywhere.
It is easier to corrupt a peaceful country than change a dangerous country
@@contineus999hungry
Japan Immigration do that when you go beserk like an animal and they don't force feed you too if go on a hungry strike, after they arrested you for being an overstay, I was arrested once and was never maltreated my only complain is the food which healthy anyways and sleeping on the floor in a mat and futon cause it is my first time to sleep on the floor.
@Hey baby, come to Butthead
They feel entitled, seen it many times. Their lucky they are here in Japan, in other countries if you go crazy cops will either taser or shoot you dead.
Don’t go to Japan then, duh
That doesn’t make this situation right though. Prisoners still get medical attention.
@@sergel02 Then don't
@@lilithclaws832 your comment makes no sense. Then don’t what? Prisoners still get and should get medical attention.
@@sergel02 That woman refuse to eat, so are the immigration offiicers going to force feed her,then people like you are going boinks again.
@@lilithclaws832 prisoners are humans too why do you say they don’t need medical attention. Human rights violations. Everyone has right to be treated fairly regardless of their status . If janap is not doing that what sort of a country is it ?
The tale of a cobra and an Indian. The story tells you which to trust first.
it’s factually wrong. at first she wanted to return to her home but changed her stance to stay in japan after meeting the activist group, but it sounds so strange in three ways.
first asylum seekers are supposed to be afraid of persecution by the authorities but she desired to go home at first. It’s contradictory.
second her reason being refugee was by her husband’s domestic violence but it’s not the condition for refugees, because then it’s her government she should have begged for help to, not japan.
third it’s likely japan’s activist group abets ppl contained at border control centers to go hunger strike so that they’re given a parole and go away, but it’s so inhuman act they’re exposed to death like this time.
If she were an American she wouldn't have been detained at all.
@@kalinga2nihon Japan detains everyone . Come look at prison here you'll see lots of caucasian imprisoned especially americans.
But she was in a prisoner in Japan right? Even if her government should have been the one to deal with her abusive boyfriend, Japan was the one who arrested her. It’s their job then to ensure her safety and health as well while she’s detained.
@@sergel02 That is her countries call.
@@sergel02 why Japan neeed to deal with her boyfriend problem, she can hire a Lawyer.
Japan is an island country in the Far East. Due to such geographical conditions, according to Japanese refugee judges, 99% of those who apply for refugee status in Japan are economic refugees, not refugees
Wishma, a deceased Sri Lankan woman, said that her first reason for applying for refugee status in Japan was that she was being chased by the Sri Lankan underground. She also said the reason for her second asylum application was to escape the violence of her Sri Lankan lover. Meanwhile, she continued to refuse to return to Sri Lanka.
Is it reason to kill her from japan authourities?
By your comment that liar is just manipulating everyone by acting I am a poor Oppressed sri lankan who needs international Bleeding Hearts help.
I Am A Sri Lankan too
You should take care of this earlier. Now Sri Lanka has lost a precious person. Take care that such misdeeds do not happen again. Thank you very much for understanding that Japan is not as beautiful a country as we thought
So Japan has to tolerate Lying wanna immigrants just to appease your beautiful Japan image, Pathetic!
This is why your country is going on default with this criminal mindset, I’m talking about you Sri Lanka!
It's not out job to care of Sri Lankans. We're even more her sister coming to Japan on tourist visa. It only proves it was a fake asylum case.
No more japan stuff for me
Sure you can try lol
Great, you poor Sri Lankans cannot afford from the first place! 😂
0:45 change the law in your oen country.😂
After hearing this, now it make sense about nukes in Japan, dissapointed about human rights!
Imagine protecting criminal, no wonder Sri Lanka is one of the most underdeveloped nation with government defaulting when you Sri Lankans are full of criminal supporters, no wonder 😂
Initially she agreed to return to Sri Lanka, but a Japanese refugee support activist said, "If you go on a hunger strike and get sick, you will be able to get out of the containment facility." Invited to strike, she did it. The content is to refuse the food and medicines offered at refugee detention facilities in Japan and to eat only sweets. As a result, she unfortunately became ill and died
Where did you working on in refugee detention office,? The court had agreed and investigation found out they haven't had offered any medical support during the her strike, unless it is been said she had refused to eat they offered she is diabetes patient, it's happened because of underestimated consideration of refugee detention officer, finally court had apologized the order to pay the dispensation. Don't act like you know everything according to your investigation with lack of low knowledge at least respect the person who died without knowing she gonna die.
@@mackythekingsthought9843 the biatch refuse it, so force the meds on her, then what you activists go lalala again. Nothing is going to satisfy you morons .
The articles of videos coming out now show you’re incorrect, and she did ask for help but was ignored.
@@sergel02 No, that woman refuse all help, I feel sorry to the Immigration Officers.
@@lilithclaws832 don't tell lies..i even watched the video..did u watch it?how could u say that she refused help..she said she is unable to eat or even to sit..can u even something when u don't have enough energy to it?
