Sri Lanka has been accused of war crimes after video footage apparently showing government soldiers executing nine naked Tamils.
The footage, apparently shot by a soldier on a mobile phone, shows a naked man sitting blindfolded and bound in the dirt.
A soldier kicks the man before he is shot.
The bodies of eight others are shown.
Journalists for Democracy in Sri Lanka, which passed the material to Channel 4 in Britain , said it was filmed in January.
The High Commission of Sri Lanka claimed the footage was doctored and denied the country's forces engaged in war crimes.
