WHAT A SHAME

IT is shame on the that he is interfering
in the on-going police investigations against Maoist cadres who brutally
murdered journalist Dekendra Thapa eight years ago during the so- called
people’s war against the state (“PM Bhattarai ‘orders’ halt in
investigations” January 9, page 1). He should listen to the accused
murderers who had already confessed to the crime during police interrogation
and now they deeply regret their heinous act. They seem ready to face any
punishment coming their way.
Had the PM publicly announced that the investigation
process would be carried out by the state machinery in an impartial manner
rather than blocking the interrogation process, his tainted image of being
arrogant, egoistic, self-centred and stubborn chief executive would have been
washed clean. Instead, terming the investigation as a farce being hatched to
derail the peace process only makes him look like an idiot.
