Reconciliation Commission

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday urged Pope Francis to visit Canada to apologise to indigenous peoples for the Catholic Church's treatment of aboriginal children in schools it ran there.

The Election Commission is likely to declare the dates for the UP election tomorrow and the implications for the SP are obvious: if they unite, they are still in the fray; if divided, its Advantage Mayawati. So while a reconciliation may be cosmetic, it may not be elusive for much longer.

Cuba said today it would pardon 3,522 prisoners within the next three days on the occasion of the Sept. 19-22 visit by Pope Francis, repeating similar actions it took ahead of visits by Pope Benedict in 2012 and Pope John Paul II in 1998.

Peruvian police caught the logistics chief of Shining Path, the rebel group largely gutted after 20 years of fighting but whose remnants are active in coca-growing regions, officials said Saturday.

Sri Lankan President Mahindra Rajapakse told NDTV that if the reconciliation commission report endorses any human rights violation in the war against the Tamil Tigers, the government will take action without shielding anyone. He also says the Lankan navy has been stopped from taking Indian fishermen into custody anymore.

The Ivory Coast government announced on Monday the formation of a truth and reconciliation panel including footballer Didier Drogba, to probe post-election violence which left over 3,000 dead.
