Maoist continuing atrocities; bomb house of NC cadres

Posted by ohnepal on May 23, 2006

Well, well, we still can't decide if M is bride or the groom. We take M as the groom because Nepal is basically a Men's society. So since the groom is mis-treating the bride (SPA) and making her obey his whims and since the bride is a modern day girl, will the marriage take place or not? Is the pre-marriage Honeymoon period coming to an end? It's not even a month since the 19 days of unpopular Mob movement ended and we are seeing the same old stories resurfacing. Uh uh SPAM lovers, what is your say? You have done a much more heavy damage to the Kingdom of Nepal, than you can anticipate, and this time there will be no RNA and His Majesty's to rescue you. Bye bye, bye bye bye bye SPAM.

Nepalnews brings to us what we already know of:

Maoist continuing atrocities; bomb house of NC cadres

Maoists detonated bombs at the house of a Nepali Congress district committee member and chairman of Basantapatti village development committee Jogendra Sahani, at Basantapatti VDC-6 in Rautahat district and abducted his two sons.

Sahani's wife Ramkali Devi, who sustained serious injuries in the incident, was taken to India for treatment.

The rebels also badly beat up all five members of the family before abducting Jogendra's sons Shyam Sundar and Shambhu. Quoting Ramkali, police said the Maoists tied the two up and took them to unknown destination.

They accused him of spying against them. After the Maoists issued frequent threats against him, he had fled the village a couple of years ago and taken refuge at district headquarters Gaur.

Maoists also looted cash and goods from the house.

The Maoists, owning up the bombing, said it was action taken against Sahani as he tried to obstruct their program.

The incident came at a time when the government and rebels are preparing Code of Conduct to be implemented during the period of ceasefire and talks.

Maoists have been continuing their atrocities even during the ceasefire declared by them. However the party leadership denies such issues, saying the party did not have the policy to do so. nepalnews.com pb May 23 06

The govt. is not serious towards negotiations: Mahara

Posted by ohnepal on May 22, 2006

Yesterday we spoke about the pre-marriage honeymoon period and marriage of SPA and M. Today, we are more then sad (we seriously are not happy :p) to bring to you that differences are manifolds between bride and groom. Will the marriage take place or not? We look forward to your knowledgeable comments.

This is what Nepalnews brought to the public:

The govt. is not serious towards negotiations: Mahara

Spokesman of the CPN (Maoist) Krishna Bahadur Mahara (File Photo)

A day after arriving Kathmandu to prepare ground for 'summit level talks' between his party and Seven Party Alliance (SPA) government, spokesman of the CPN (Maoist), Krishna Bahadur Mahara, has alleged that the government is not serious towards negotiations.

"The have neither announced a full-fledged negotiation team nor responded to our code of conduct. It has created confusion," Mahara told Nepal F. M.—a private sector radio station based in Kathmandu—Monday morning.

Mahara said that the environment for talks was yet to be crated. He insisted that the government release all the Maoist detainees before the talks would resume. "A lot of political and practical things need to be done before talks could resume. The government doesn't look eager, serious or pro-active for negotiations," said Mahara. He, however, said his party was ready to sit for peace negotiations as soon as "environment for talks were created."

Responding to a query by Binod Dhungel, news editor of the Nepal F. M., Mahara said allegations of extortion, abduction and continuing recruitment in the Maoist army were unfounded. "We have been looking at such allegations very seriously. Domestic as well as foreign forces that want to spoil the environment of negotiations could be behind such allegations," said Mahara. Referring to allegations of extortion from industries based in Birgunj, he added that his party did not have a policy of raising forced donations. "Of course, we will collect voluntary donations," he added.

Mahara reiterated his party's demand that the existing constitution should be scrapped and the reinstated House of Representatives (HoR) be dissolved immediately. He said the basis of the reinstatement of the HoR was the constitution of 1990. "The country has moved far ahead. The 1990 constitution can't represent today's people's sentiments. So, the present constitution and parliament needed to be dissolved," he added.

The Maoist spokesman demanded that the government convene a grand political conference – which he said would be a supreme body and much powerful than the reinstated parliament. "Only then an environment for forming an interim government would be created," he said. He, however, said as an important partner of 'jana andolan' (people's movement), the Maoists were ready to help the government to move towards the constituent assembly.

"The crux of the matter is whether the SPA government understands us as yet another political party or a new regime and political force that had its own army," said Mahara.

Meanwhile, reports say Mahara arrived in Kathmandu Sunday to prepare for negotiations with the government and also to take part in a first public meeting being organized by his party in Kathmandu on June 2. Kantipur daily reported that Mahara arrived Kathmandu from the mid-western town of Nepalgunj aboard Buddha Air along with his two 'bodyguards.' Security officials stopped Mahara's body guards as they tried to board the aircraft along with their weapons. The team, however, agreed to leave behind their weapons after Home Minister Krishna Sitaula asked them to do so, the news report said.

Other members of the Maoist negotiation team, Dev Gurung and Dinanath Sharma, are also expected to arrive Kathmandu within the next two days, according to reports. nepalnews.com by May 22 06

Prachanda to surface in Kathmandu 2 June, other details

Posted by ohnepal on May 21, 2006

It's Public Marriage time. One of the biggest Swayamvars ever is going to take place on 2nd June, 2006. Have you been invited? If not, an invitation will be extended to you shortly by SPAM and you will be paid 500 N.C. (7 USD) for attending it. If you refuse to attend the wedding, you will be asked to pay back (28 USD) and if you can't pay that, get ready to be caned 500 times by the Maoists cadres and while they beat you, your properties will be vandalized by the democratic mobs of SPA.

P .S.: OhNepal knows that a common person in Nepal earns less then 28 USD per month.

Thanks to Peoplesreview for bringing us the information on the marriage and the honeymoon of SPA and M. Well, oops, the honeymoon period started long before the marriage. We will wait and watch the long term married life of the bride and groom.

Peoplesreview gives us the following news and we term it as "SPA weds Maoists on the 2nd of June, 2006 at an Open Air Theatre in Kathmandu".

Prachanda to surface in Kathmandu 2 June, other details

By Bhola B Rana

Kathmandu, 20 May: Maoist Chairman Prachanda will surface in Kathmandu 2 June.

Posters were posted on walls in the capital announcing he will surface at the Open Air Theatre at one in the afternoon that day.

Prachanda will appear in Kathmandu one day after the fifth anniversary of the Narayanhiti Royal palace massacre and when the seven party coalition (SPA) is working to bring Maoists into an interim government ahead of elections for a constituent assembly.

The election will not be fair, free and impartial because the SPA has already adopted a republican agenda by curbing the powers of the King and army ahead of the assembly proposed polls.

Governments in Nepal and the region are known have to manipulated polls to suit the agenda of ruling parties.

If free, fair and impartial elections are to be held for an assembly, it must be conducted by a neutral government.

Meanwhile, the NC central committee Saturday asked Maoists to stop extortions and forcible recruitment into their militia.

The committee asked the government led by the party to push talks with the Maoists to regularize a 12-point agreement.

The committee welcomed Thursday's parliamentary proclamation.

The NC committee accused Maoists of not honestly implementing the 12-point accord accusing Maoists of continuing extrotions and recruitment.

Industries on Birgunj have closed down after Maoists demanded more than Rs 100 million in extortion money.

Sher Bahadur Deuba was Saturday elected the parliamentary party leader. Challenger Bijaya Kumar Gachedar collected only13 votes to Deuba's 24.

Former prime minister Krishna Prasad Bhattarai, PL Singh and Deputy Speaker Chitralekha Yadav didn't cast their ballots.

Koirala calls Prachanda, urges to stop extortions

Posted by ohnepal on May 21, 2006

While Girija babu Koirala and Oli are busy playing coochie-coo over the phones with Prachanda and Baburam and as they continue to work on 'under the table' deals among themselves, Nepal continues to bleed and bleed and bleed…check the bottom half of this story, which was published on Kantipur.

Koirala calls Prachanda, urges to stop extortions

Kantipur Report

KATHMANDU, May 21 – Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala on Saturday urged Maoists Supremo Prachanda to halt extortion and intimidation against businesses.

According to a source, Koirala telephoned Prachanda in the afternoon and urged him to allow industries in Birgunj, including Dabar Nepal, to run smoothly. These industries remained closed for the second day and industrialists have issued a 48-hour ultimatum to the rebel's trade union to sit for dialogue threatening an indefinite closure.

In response to Koirala's call, according to the source, Prachanda said that he would issue internal circular to the party cadres after investigating if his cadres have extorted the industrialists.

Maoists continue extortion

Meanwhile Maoists' cadres have asked for donations under different titles in Narayangadh bazaar and adjoining areas lately.

According to local businessmen, "They come with different names of their sister organizations and ask for hefty sums under different heads, like for the expansion of their organization and to feed their guerrillas," said one businessman. "They come with the donation pad of ANFTU, their student wing and other organizations and threaten to take action if we don't give them the sums asked."

According to them, the Maoists fix the sums payable after asking about their income and business type. The businessmen, who have been terrorized by the forced donation drive, lamented that they could neither pay the huge sums nor reject the demands outright due to the impending danger that involved.

In another report from Butwal, Maoists awarded a contract for the sale of forest and river products and disused commodities after inviting a tender on their own.  Responding to the tender notice of the rebel's "joint revolutionary district council" were 13 persons. Prakash Gupta was selected as his offer of 10 million 1,119 rupees was the highest.
