The vital facts such as the specific period and number of total
population in Mulative district at the relevant period are not provided
in this part of the Charge. However, OISL Report admits that GOSL
has sent 105 MT of foods.

So, Part II of Limb B of the OISL charge admits that GOSL has sent
105,000 Kg of foods to Mulative district. Therefore, on those facts, it
is not improbable for any reasonable person to conclude that the OISL
charge that GOSL had implemented a policy of deliberatley starving
civilians or denying humanitarian assistance to civilians during the
conflict period is a groundless allegation.
