Kathmandu, May 11
The CPN-Maoist Centre has held its opponent CPN-UML responsible for the death of a UML cadre in an inter-party clash in Gauri Shankar Rural Municipality of Dolakha district on Tuesday night.
Kul Bahadur Tamang, son of Gore Tamang, a UML candidate for ward member in Gauri Shankar-1, had sustained injuries in a clash with Maoists and died few hours later on Tuesday.
After the victim’s family filed a complaint against Maoist leaders and cadres, the CPN-MC today said “some unrestrained UML cadres” were responsible for the incident as they attacked the Maoist party at first.
The party, however, demanded a fair investigation into the case and action against the guilty.
It also urged the government to provide an ex-gratia assistance to the family of the victim.
