Kathmandu, November 18

Durga Prasai has been arrested. According to a police source, a team from the Kathmandu District Police Range and the Kathmandu Valley Crime Investigation Office arrested Prasai from his house in Bhaktapur.

Police sources said he was taken into custody around midnight on Monday on charges of making statements that could incite violence and provoke anarchic activities.

Earlier, Prasai, who had been arrested after the violent protest on March 18, was released under a court order. Involved in pro-monarchist activities, Prasai had been preparing for a protest, putting forth demands such as the waiver of loans he had taken from the bank.
