Around-the-Clock Activity at Oli’s Gundu Residence as Workers and Vehicles Gather on the Streets

March 27, Kathmandu — Amid confidential reports that former Prime Minister and CPN-UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli may face arrest, leaders and supporters have begun gathering at his residence in Gundu, Bhaktapur.

Senior leaders of the UML have convened inside Oli’s residence, while a large number of party workers have assembled outside. Various vehicles have also been parked in the area.

Following the formation of the new government, the cabinet decided to implement the report prepared by the investigative commission led by Gauribahadur Karki.

Subsequently, Home Minister Sudan Gurung has been engaged in continuous discussions through the night with heads of security agencies.

The police have urged that no action be taken until an official written order is received from the government. Around midnight, the Ministry of Law’s secretary was also summoned to the main office in Naxal.

The investigation commission submitted its report to the interim government led by Sushila Karki following their examination of the crackdown on the protests on 8th and 9th September.

Then Acting Prime Minister Karki had authorized public disclosure of the report; however, the government has yet to officially release it.

Some portions of the report have already been leaked to the media.
