Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Home Affairs Ravi Lamichhane has urged protestors at the federal capital's Maitighar to abandon demonstrations and instead help in the investigation.
Protestors have been staging a series of demonstrations calling for justice for Nirmala Kurmi of Banke.
Reiterating that the government is sensitive regarding the incident related to Kurmi, the Home Minister informed that the Nepal Police's Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) has been conducting an investigation into this incident by mobilizing a special team. He urged the agitating side to abandon the sit-in and other protest programs and help in the investigations.
The Minister shared that he phoned Ruby Khan, who is on a sit-in protest, two times since taking up his charge as a Minister and informed her that the government was serious regarding the incident and urged her to forsake sit-in and protests and support the police in finding out the culprits.
Earlier to this, the Home Minister on last Monday held a discussion on this with security high officials including Home Secretary Binod Prakash Singh and Inspector General of Police Dhiraj Pratap Singh, and instructed the CIB to submit a report after finding out the facts and truth about the incident.
