A pregnant woman and her two daughters died on Monday night after drowning in a local river in Sindupalchok district.
Indra Maya Thami and her daughters, Lalita and Laxmi, in Gorthali VDC-7 drowned in the Guihe River as they were trying to cross the seasonal river on their way back to Indra Maya´s maternal house after attending a feast at the house of one of their relatives on the occasion of Teej.
“The river had swollen following a heavy downpour on Monday night. They were swept away as they tried to cross it at night,” said Sub-Inspector Mohan Mani Katuwal at Area Police Office.
Indra Maya had along to her maternal home with her daughters on Monday.
“She had held Laxmi, her younger daughter, in her arms, and had clasped Lalita´s hands as she tried to cross the river. But the powerful current swept them, and Lalita eventually drowned. When she tried to save her, all three of them were swept away,” said Indra Maya´s aunt, who had accompanied them.
She bemoaned that she could not do anything to save them as she was helpless that rainy night.
After she informed the locals about the incident, they went searching for the missing family members, and found the body of Indra Maya some one kilometer downstream.
The police found her daughters´ bodies around eight kilometers downstream on Tuesday morning.
It has also been learnt that Indra Maya was pregnant for seven months.
Meanwhile, two persons of a family in Ghuskun VDC- 6 in the district have died after landslide triggered by heavy rainfall buried them along with their animal shed on Monday night.
The deceased have been identified as 70-years-old Mon Bahadur Bohora and his seven-year-old granddaughter Isha, informed the police.
They used to live in the shed to guard their livestock.

The investigative report published by British newspaper The Guardian regarding the exploitation and inhumane treatment of migrant labourers building infrastructure for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar has stirred much controversy. Data from the last six years shows that nearly a thousand Nepali corpses have been returned from Qatar, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman and Malaysia. The most common fate that befalls these young workers seems to be death while asleep, which is often construed as a cardiac arrest without even a post-mortem. While appalling, this material was not novel in itself.
The wave of outrage that exploded on social media over The Guardian report doesn’t seem to have rightly comprehended the issue. Though the report was published on the same day as another news piece on the undue influence of overseas employment (‘manpower’) agencies, no one seemed to raise questions about the illicit network of these agencies and their agents. Two years ago, a foreign employment report published by Amnesty International titled ‘False Promises’, cited similar migrant labour conditions as unearthed by The Guardian. Back then, manpower companies openly criticised the report. This single-minded concentration on the labour-receiving country, without paying any heed to the source country, is misguided. In addition to Nepal, many other South Asian countries, including India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Pakistan, are also source countries. All migrant labourers, regardless of the country they come from, are equally susceptible to heart attacks, forced and bonded labour. On the other hand, our manpower companies, their army of agents and middlemen are more responsible for the pitiful state of our labourers than the Gulf countries where they work.
Indeed, Arab owners often do not even know how many labourers they employ, what their pay is or what hardships they suffer. Besides, most international agencies are hesitant to speak out about the sponsorship system (Kafala) in Gulf countries including Qatar. Only now, with The Guardian report, is there attention on this exploitative system. Human rights activists from New York to Geneva cause a hue and cry about so-called child labour, forced labour, bonded work and Kamaiyas in Nepal but their queer silence on the Kafala system and human rights issues of the Gulf countries is disturbing, commented an official from the European Division at the Nepali Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Former Nepali Ambassador to Qatar Surya Nath Mishra has opined that Nepalis themselves are instrumental in tormenting Nepali labourers and entrapping them in bonded labour conditions. The Gulf countries, including Qatar, are providing employment opportunities for our unskilled and illiterate labour force but Nepali agents are misusing this opportunity.
According to Mishra, Nepali agents bear more responsibility than their Qatari counterparts in exploiting Nepali housemaids. If the 200 or so Nepali housemaids seeking shelter at the Nepali embassy in Qatar are questioned, no doubt the names of more than 180 Nepali agents and middlemen will emerge. Moreover, many highly placed Nepalis in the destination countries are themselves responsible for luring Nepalis over with big dreams. The Guardian does not seem to have explored this aspect of the grand design. Nepal signed Labour Agreements with many Gulf countries, including Bahrain, Qatar and the UAE, some time ago. However, there are no provisions in these agreements concerning the pending and stalled payments. Diplomatic missions in these countries are not even taught about the usefulness of the Labour Agreement and Nepali labourers, who are eager to fly based on false promises of big money, barely glance at the contract clauses and labour agreements. Hence, being assigned to the Labour Ministry or the Department of Foreign Employment have posed untold challenges for political leaders from Sarita Giri to Kumar Belbase. Even the President of the Nepal Association of Foreign Employment Agencies (NAFEA) Bal Bahadur Tamang, who albeit talks little about codes of conduct, has found himself under siege from compatriots.
Paradoxically, even the Foreign Employment Promotion Board is housed in a building rented from an agent, against whom legal action might possibly be taken, and the Department of Foreign Employment in a building owned by a labour attaché. A Department staffer concedes that this conflict is not normal but the Ministry of Labour itself seems ignorant of the repercussions of such an arrangement.
Meanwhile, a strange analogy was drawn between a statement by former Nepali envoy to Qatar Maya Kumari Sharma and The Guardian report. Sharma, who does not seem to know even the rudiments of diplomacy and who began her career saying that she was interested to serve in Burma, must have felt the great burden of serving in Qatar from the very beginning. Her statement, which referred to Qatar as an “open jail”, was endorsed on social media as being “right”.
To that line of thinking, I would like to refer to a lecture socialist thinker Pradip Giri gave during a recent trip to Delhi. Giri said that if you want to learn how to rule a country, you must read Junge Gita, edited by Kamal Dixit. However, this in no way should be inferred to mean that the autocracy of Jung Bahadur was right in any way. Sharma’s diplomatic faux pas is an example similar to the reading of the Junge Gita.

कमजोर अनि पुराना खाट, त्यसमाथि फोहर र थोत्रो तन्ना…..छरपस्टरुपमा फालिएका अस्थाई साधन (कन्डम) का खोलहरु । भित्तामा लामखुट्टे र उडुस मारेरबनाइएको रातो कालो टाटेपाटे धर्का । कोठाहरु पनि खाटकै आकारका एकदमै साघुँरा । तर,निस्सासिएका ती अध्यारा अनि डरलाग्दा कोठाहरुमा दुनियाँभरिमा पाइने मोजमस्तीका साथै बिलासिका चिज़बस्तुहरु चाहिएको समयमै आइपुग्छन् । तर, हावा भने कहिले पुग्दैन। यी अँध्यारा मैला कोठाहरुले थुप्रै यौनपिपाशुहरुको मनलाई तृप्त गर्ने गर्दछन् ।
भारतको राजधानी नयाँ दिल्लीस्थित पहाडगंजको कोठी नं ६४, जहाँ सैयौंको संख्यामा कलिला नेपाली चेलीहरुलाई बन्दी बनाएर नर्कको जीवन बाँच्न बाध्य पारिएको छ। दैनिकरुपमा एक जनाले ५० देखि ६० यौनपिपासुहरुको मन शान्त पार्नु उनीहरूको दैनिकी बनेको छ ।ती कोठरीहरुमा यौनचाहना मेटाउन चाहनेहरुमा भारतीय, बिदेशी गोरा लगायत नेपालीहरु पनि पर्दछन् । साँझ परेपछि पहाडगंजको सडकमा यसैका लागि भनेर ठुलो भिड देख्न सकिन्छ ।बिशेष गरी बेलुका ५ बजेदेखि राति १२ बजेसम्म हजारौ संख्यामा यौन पिपासुहरुको आवत जावत हुने यस सडकलाइ जीपी रोडका नामले सजिलैसँग चिन्न सकिन्छ। केही दिन अगाडि मलगायत दुइजना नेपालीहरू वास्तविकता के रहेछ भनेर जीपी रोडतर्फ लाग्यौं ।
राजेन्द्र कुँवरले तयार पारेको रिपोर्ट
समय साँझ ७ बजेको थियो । हामी खोज्दा खोज्दै जीपी रोडमा रिक्साबाट झर्नेवितिकै एउटा भर्खरको उमेरले लगभग १७ बर्षको युवा हुनुपर्छ, ले सोध्यो ६४ कहाँ पडता है ? हामीलाई पनि थाहा थिएन । त्यो यूवा हतार हतारमा अगाडि बढ्यो । लाग्यो, यसका पछि पछि जाऔं भनेर हामीले पनि उसलाई पिछा गर्न थाल्यौं ।मन थामी नसक्नू भयो । खुट्टा काँपिरहेका थिए। यो जीपी रोडको माहौल देखेर मनमा धेरै तर्कनाहरु उछाल खेल्न थाले । फेरि एउटा बंगालीले पनि सोध्यो, भाइ ६४ कहां है ? हामी पनि त त्यही ६४ खोज्दै हिडेका थियौं । अगाडिको केटा त्यो भिडबाट हराइसक्यो । अब यही सरदारलाई पिछा गर्ने भनेर उसको पछिपछि लाग्यौं ।दिल्लीको त्यो चरम गर्मी उसै पनि खप्न गाह्रो । पसीनाले भिजेर निथु्रक्क हामी जीपी रोडमा अगाडि हिँड्दै गर्दा त कहाँ ६४ ? त्यहाँ त ठुलो बजार नै रहेछ । मलाई त्यतिबेला ठमेल र रत्नपार्क अनि दरबार मार्गको सम्झना आयो । काठमाण्डौको रात्री जीवन र यौन व्यवसायीहरु कोही बाटोमै त कोही होटेल, रेष्टुराँ अनि कोही ठूल्ठूला स्टार होटेलमा पनि हुने गरेका परिदृश्य दिमागमा फल्यासआउट भए ।
जीपी रोडको बाटोमा पिछा गर्दै जाँदा २० मीटरजति पछि त्यो पञ्जाबी र उसका साथीहरु एउटा सानो गल्लीमा पसेको देखें, उनीहरुभित्र गइसकेपछि हामी त्यहाँ अडियौं । त्यहीँ अगाडि खुद्रके सामान बेच्ने साहुलाई सोध्यौँ । भाइ साहेब ६४ कहाँ है ? अबे सामने नही देखरा है ? कान्छी है कान्छी । तुम्हारे गाउँके है, सब, अच्छी अच्छी माल मिलती है । जाओ उधर । त्यो साहुको कुरा सुनेर म त पागल झै भएँ । दिमाग चक्कराउन थाल्यो, खुट्टा काँप्न थाले । धर्ति चिरिएर भासिएको जस्तो लाग्यो । पुरै आकाशमै माथि आएर थिचे झै भयो । मनमा आगो बल्यो । हामीलाई यति साह्रो हेपेर बोल्यो कि मैले उसको कुरा सुन्नै सकेको थिएन । तेरे गाऊँ के लड्किया भन्दै छ, म बर्बराउन थालंेछु । मलाई साथीले आवेशमा नआउन अनुरोध गरेपछि सम्हालिएँ…….। लामो सुस्केरा हाल्दै, पछी पो थाहा भयो म एउटा नेपालीले महान भारतको राजधानी दिल्लीमा, त्यो पनि जीपी रोडमा छु भनेर । पछि आफूलाई सम्हाल्दै त्यही पसलमा १ बोटल पानी किनेर खाएँ । साथीले ल ल फर्किउ भन्दै थिए तर पछि मैले उल्टै सम्झाएँ । हामी यहाँ आउनुको मुख्य कारण बताएर सम्झाएँ ।
तीनैजना बिस्तारै भर्याङ. चढ्दै थियौं । खुट्टाको मासु नै पल्टिएला झै लाग्दैछ । मुटुको ढुकढुकी एक मिनेटमै १७१ पुगिसक्यो । डर, भय, त्रास सबै कुरालाई मनमै थाती राखेर एक सुरमा भित्र पस्यांै । एक तलामाथि के पुगेका थियौं त्यहाँ त २ जना दिल्ली पुलिसका जवान डिउटी मै खटिएका रहेछन् । मैले साथीहरुलाई भनें भाग, भाग । अब हामीलाई पनि थुन्ने भयो, तीनैजना कुदेर १ कि मी टाढा पुग्यौ । धन्य हो, भगवान पशुपति बचाइस् भन्दै पहाडगञ्ज डेरासम्म आइपुग्यौं ।
दोस्रो साताको प्रयास
फेरि अर्को साता मलगायत साथीहरु त्यही ठाउँमा गयौं । वास्तविकता देखेर मात्र हुँदैन, बुझ्नुपर्छ भन्दै रु १२ सय भारु तिरेर ४ सयका दरले तीनजनाले त्यहीँ बस्ने पूर्व तयारीका साथ रातभर त्यहीँ बस्ने भनेर गयौं ।त्यहाँ जसले जुन केटी रोजे पनि हुँदो रहेछ । तर सबै जना पाचांैतलाको माथिल्लो छतमा सँगै सगोलमा बस्नु पर्ने । करीब २ सयजना ग्राहकसँगै थिए । २० जना जति नेपाली युवाहरु पनि त्यहीँ देखिन्थे । रक्सीको गन्ध, चूरोटको धूवाँ बस्न लायक नै छैन । उकुस मुकुस, दिल्लीको गर्मी । एउटी १३ बर्ष जतिकी बहिनीसँग बसेर सयौं जनाको बीचमा कुरा गर्न पनि कस्तो गाह्रो ।
नुवाकोट घर बताउने ती बहिनी नाम परिवर्तीत (सविना…) चुरोट किन्न पैसा छ दाइ भन्दै म र साथी संग ३०/३० मिनेटको हाराहारीमा २० मागिन् । सविनालाई सोध्यौं बहिनीको नाम के हो? घर कता हो? कसरी आइपुग्यौ? यस अँध्यारो कोठीमा कसले पुर्यायो ? आदि इत्यादि । चुरोट तान्दै नसुकेका ती ओठमा लिपीस्टिक, गाजल लगाएर चूल्ठो बाटेर चिटिक्क सविनालाई न घरको चिन्ता छ, न समाजको । केवल चिन्ता छ त पैसा कमाउने । रात छिप्पिँदै जाँदैछ, करीब मध्यरात भएको छेउ मै रहेको रेलवे स्टेशनको रेलको आवाजले संकेत गर्दैर्छ । त्यहाँ कसैलाई कसैको डर छैन । निर्धक्क छन् सबै ।
एकै छिनमा पानी पर्यो । छतको माथि टहराझै त्रिपालले छाएको छ । पानी तर्तर् गर्दैछ । हाम्रो कुराले गतिलिन छोडिसक्यो । त्यतिकै बसेँ । एकछिनमै जुन लाग्यो । म त अब रिसाउँछु बोल्दै बोल्दिँन, रुने मान्छेसंग दिल खोल्दैन..पानी परेपछिको आकाश खुले झै…. यो गीत मेरो मुखबाट अनायासै आयो, सविना हेरेकी हेर्यै भई र बोल्न थाली-
‘दाइहरु रिसाउनु भएको हैन ? किन र ? जवाफ फर्काउँछिन् । दाइले गाएको गीत र मौसम ठ्याक्कै मेल खायो । ‘दाइ मलाई त कलिलै उमेरमा यहाँ ल्याइपुर्यायो। ल्याउने मान्छे पनि चिन्दैन । मेरो घरको मान्छेलाई पनि थाहा छैन । म पनि बिर्सिसकें, कस्तो छ मेरो गाउँ ?……तर दाइ हामो्र गाउँमा पनि यस्तै पानी पर्छ । हाम्रो गाउँमा पनि यस्तै जून लाग्छ । हामी घाँस काट्न मेला जाने गथ्र्यौ, अरु मलाई केही थाहा छैन । …..लामो सास फेर्दै भन्छिन् गाउँ जाने मन त थियो, जाने कसरी ? यो ठाउँबाट बाहिर निस्कनै दिँदैनन् ।’
दुःख कतिको हुन्छ त…..? प्रश्न गर्न नपाउँदै, ‘तपाई त मेरै दाइजस्तै लाग्यो, बाच्न दिनु न, हामी नेपाल फर्किन्छौं भन्न थालिन् । माइती नेपालको नाम पनि थाहा रहेछ सविनालाई । भन्दै थिइन्- नेपाल गयो भने त घर जान नपाए पनि त्यही संस्थामा बस्ने थियौं ।
विहानको ४ बज्न थाल्यो । सविना भन्दै थिइन्-दाइ सहयोग गरिदिनूहोस् है । हामी पनि हुन्छ भन्दै बाहिर निस्क्यांै । तर, के नै गर्न सक्थ्यौं र हामीले…. । देशमा यतिका महिलाहरुको हकहितका लागि लड्ने भन्दै अधिकार खोज्ने ३३ प्रतिशत महिला सभासददेखि महिला अधिकारवादी संस्थाहरुले सविनाजस्ता हजारौं नेपाली चेलीहरुको रोदन कहिले सुन्न सक्लान् ? दिनानुदिन चेलीहरुलाई भारतका मुख्य शहरहरुमा वेश्यावृति गर्न वाध्य पार्ने ती दलालहरुलाई न प्रहरीले केही गर्न सकेका छन् न सामाजिक सञ्जालहरुले नै । महिला मन्त्रालयको काम यसभित्र पर्छ कि पर्दैन ? नेपाली राजदुतावास भारतमा के गर्दैछ ? भन्ने प्रश्नको जवाफमा त्यहाँ बस्ने नेपालीहरुले ट्रेनको टिकेट काट्ने काम बाहेक एउटा झिँगा मार्न नसकेको गुनासो गर्छन् ।
जय हो । नेपालको कानुन दैवले जानुन्
भारतको राजधानी नयाँ दिल्लीस्थित पहाडगंजको कोठी नं ६४, जहाँ सैयौंको संख्यामा कलिला नेपाली चेलीहरुलाई बन्दी बनाएर नर्कको जीवन बाँच्न बाध्य पारिएको छ। दैनिकरुपमा एक जनाले ५० देखि ६० यौनपिपासुहरुको मन शान्त पार्नु उनीहरूको दैनिकी बनेको छ ।ती कोठरीहरुमा यौनचाहना मेटाउन चाहनेहरुमा भारतीय, बिदेशी गोरा लगायत नेपालीहरु पनि पर्दछन् । साँझ परेपछि पहाडगंजको सडकमा यसैका लागि भनेर ठुलो भिड देख्न सकिन्छ ।बिशेष गरी बेलुका ५ बजेदेखि राति १२ बजेसम्म हजारौ संख्यामा यौन पिपासुहरुको आवत जावत हुने यस सडकलाइ जीपी रोडका नामले सजिलैसँग चिन्न सकिन्छ। केही दिन अगाडि मलगायत दुइजना नेपालीहरू वास्तविकता के रहेछ भनेर जीपी रोडतर्फ लाग्यौं ।

‘दाइहरु रिसाउनु भएको हैन ? किन र ? जवाफ फर्काउँछिन् । दाइले गाएको गीत र मौसम ठ्याक्कै मेल खायो । ‘दाइ मलाई त कलिलै उमेरमा यहाँ ल्याइपुर्यायो। ल्याउने मान्छे पनि चिन्दैन । मेरो घरको मान्छेलाई पनि थाहा छैन । म पनि बिर्सिसकें, कस्तो छ मेरो गाउँ ?……तर दाइ हामो्र गाउँमा पनि यस्तै पानी पर्छ । हाम्रो गाउँमा पनि यस्तै जून लाग्छ । हामी घाँस काट्न मेला जाने गथ्र्यौ, अरु मलाई केही थाहा छैन । …..लामो सास फेर्दै भन्छिन् गाउँ जाने मन त थियो, जाने कसरी ? यो ठाउँबाट बाहिर निस्कनै दिँदैनन् ।’
दुःख कतिको हुन्छ त…..? प्रश्न गर्न नपाउँदै, ‘तपाई त मेरै दाइजस्तै लाग्यो, बाच्न दिनु न, हामी नेपाल फर्किन्छौं भन्न थालिन् । माइती नेपालको नाम पनि थाहा रहेछ सविनालाई । भन्दै थिइन्- नेपाल गयो भने त घर जान नपाए पनि त्यही संस्थामा बस्ने थियौं ।
विहानको ४ बज्न थाल्यो । सविना भन्दै थिइन्-दाइ सहयोग गरिदिनूहोस् है । हामी पनि हुन्छ भन्दै बाहिर निस्क्यांै । तर, के नै गर्न सक्थ्यौं र हामीले…. । देशमा यतिका महिलाहरुको हकहितका लागि लड्ने भन्दै अधिकार खोज्ने ३३ प्रतिशत महिला सभासददेखि महिला अधिकारवादी संस्थाहरुले सविनाजस्ता हजारौं नेपाली चेलीहरुको रोदन कहिले सुन्न सक्लान् ? दिनानुदिन चेलीहरुलाई भारतका मुख्य शहरहरुमा वेश्यावृति गर्न वाध्य पार्ने ती दलालहरुलाई न प्रहरीले केही गर्न सकेका छन् न सामाजिक सञ्जालहरुले नै । महिला मन्त्रालयको काम यसभित्र पर्छ कि पर्दैन ? नेपाली राजदुतावास भारतमा के गर्दैछ ? भन्ने प्रश्नको जवाफमा त्यहाँ बस्ने नेपालीहरुले ट्रेनको टिकेट काट्ने काम बाहेक एउटा झिँगा मार्न नसकेको गुनासो गर्छन् ।
जय हो । नेपालको कानुन दैवले जानुन्

एजेन्सी । यमनमा एक ८ वर्षिय दुलही विवाहको पहिलो दिनमै ज्यान गएको छ। साउदी अरबसंग सिमा नजिक यमनको उत्तर पश्चिमी क्षेत्र हार्दमा यस्तो दर्दनाक घट्ना घटेको हो।
अधिकारीवादीहरुले जनाए अनुसार मृतक बालिकाको नाम रावन हो। रावनका परिवारले उनको विवाह मात्र ८ वर्षको उमेर पाँच गुना उमेर भएका ४० वर्षिय व्यक्तिसंग गरिदिएका थिए।विवाहको पहिलो रात ४० वर्षिय बेहुलाले यौन सम्पर्कको प्रयास गर्दा यौनी च्यातिएर रावनको ज्यान गएको हो।
यमनका अधिकारीबादीले ८ वर्षिय बालिकाको विवाह गरिदिने परिवारले र बेहुलालाई पक्राउ गरेर कारवाही गर्ने माग गरेका छन् । यस घट्ना पछि यमनमा चर्को प्रतिक्रिया व्यक्त गरिएको छ।

यमनका ठुलो संख्यामा बालविवाह हुने गरेको छ । यसका यमनको गरिबी पनि जिम्मेवार मानिन्छ। गरिब परिवार पैसाको लोभमा छोरीलाई विवाहको रुपमा बेच्ने गरेका छन्।

Mumbai gang-rape accused taken to crime spot to reconstruct events
he five accused arrested in connection with the gang rape of 23-year-old photojournalist were on Wednesday taken to Shakti Mills compound here to reconstruct the sequence of events that led to the crime.
All the five accused were brought to the crime scene at around 1pm and police sought details from them as to what had transpired on the fateful day.
The victim, an intern with an English magazine, was allegedly raped by the five accused when she had gone to the desolate Shakti Mills premises on August 22 with a male colleague on an assignment. Her colleague is a prime witness in the case.
Joint Commissioner of Police (crime) Himanshu Roy, who is supervising the investigation, was also present at Mills when the accused were brought there.
The reconstruction of events that led to the crime is also being video-recorded, police sources said.
All five accused - Salim Ansari, Vijay Jadhav, Chand Babu Sattar Shaikh, Mohammed Kasim Hafiz Shaikh alias Kasim Bengali and Siraj Rehman Khan - are in the custody of the Mumbai Crime Branch.
Police had earlier said that when Salim made a phone call to Kasim Bengali, asking him to immediately reach Shakti mills on the day of the crime, the latter was present in a shanty with Chand, Siraj and one more person. "That person has been found and made a witness in the case," he said.
Yesterday, two teams from Central Forensic Science Laboratory, Delhi, and Gujarat Forensic Science Laboratory, carrying advanced equipment, thoroughly examined the crime scene for nearly three hours to gather evidence to build a water-tight case against the accused.
The team from Gujarat also had two psychiatrists who conducted Layered Voice Analysis (LVA) on the accused. LVA is a technique designed for truth verification and detection of deceit. It helps measure the emotional content of human speech, captured live or extracted from recorded audio.
Police have also conducted searches at the homes of the accused and recovered clothes including undergarments.
Responding to a query about the victim being forced to clean the crime scene after the brutal act, a police official had earlier replied in the affirmative but said plenty of evidence was still collected from the spot.

leopard preyed on an eight-year-old boy at Bishalpur VDC-2 in Baitadi district on Sunday night.
The man-eater whisked away Dambar Soni, son of Parma Soni, from his house while he was sleeping. The leopard entered Soni’s room through the window and took away the boy while he was sleeping with his mother. Villagers found some body parts of the boy around 500 meters away from the house on Monday.
Leopards mauled two children to death and injured three women in Bishalpur and its vicinity at Talloswarad area in the district within the past two months. Local people said leopards enter the settlements mostly in the evenings and attack children and women. The man-eaters have terrorised locals in eight VDCs in the area for the past few years. Leopards killed 22 people in the area within the past one year. According to the villagers, there could be three or four man-eaters in the area. They said leopards used to attack children earlier, but now they target women.
“The villagers are in living terror. Leopards enter houses and attack people. One cannot even go to toilet alone,” said Jaya Dutta Bhatta of Bishalpur. “Neither fear-stricken children could go to school nor women can come out of houses alone.” Villagers complained that the authorities concerned always ignored their plight despite repeated requests. The local administration had sent a joint team of Nepal Army, Nepal Police, Armed Police Force, forest employees and experts from Chitwan National Park to the area last year to catch the man-eaters, but to no avail.
opposition accused government forces of gassing hundreds of people on Wednesday by firing rockets that released deadly fumes over rebel-held Damascus suburbs, killing men, women and children as they slept.
The council did not explicitly demand a U.N. investigation of the incident, although it said "clarity" was needed and welcomed U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon's calls for a prompt investigation by the U.N. inspection team in Syria , led by Ake Sellstrom.

With the death toll estimated between 500 and 1,300, what would be the world's most lethal chemical weapons attack since the 1980s prompted an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council in New York.
An earlier Western-drafted statement submitted to the council, seen by Reuters, was not approved. The final version of the statement was watered down to accommodate objections from Russia and China, diplomats said. Moscow and Beijing have vetoed previous Western efforts to impose U.N. penalties on Assad.
Syria Information Minister Omran Zoabi said the allegations were 'illogical and fabricated". President Bashar al-Assad's officials have said they would never use poison gas against Syria ns. The United States and European allies believe Assad's forces have used small amounts of sarin before, hence the current U.N. visit.
Immediate international action is likely to be limited, with the divisions among major powers that have crippled efforts to quell 2 1/2 years of civil war still much in evidence.
Britain voiced the opposite view: "I hope this will wake up some who have supported the Assad regime to realize its murderous and barbaric nature," Foreign Secretary William Hague said on a visit to Paris.

Russia backed up Syria n government denials by saying it looked like a rebel "provocation" to discredit Assad.
France, Britain, the United States and others called for an immediate on-site investigation by U.N. chemical weapons inspectors who arrived in the Syria n capital only this week. Moscow, urging an "objective" inquiry, said the very presence of that team suggested government forces were not to blame.
U.S. President Barack Obama has made the use of chemical weapons by Assad's forces a "red line" that in June triggered more U.S. aid to the rebels. But previous, smaller and disputed cases of their deployment have not brought the all-out military intervention rebel leaders have sought to break a stalemate.
U.S. Senator John McCain, a Republican critic of Obama's Syria policy, said on Twitter that failure to penalize previous gas attacks had emboldened Assad: "No consequence for Assad using chemical weapons & crossing red line," he said. "We shouldn't be surprised he's using them again."
Images, including some by freelance photographers supplied to Reuters, showed scores of bodies - some of them small children - laid on the floor of a clinic with no visible signs of injury. Some showed people with foam around their mouths.
The United States and others said it had no independent confirmation that chemical weapons had been used. The U.N. chief, Ban, said the head of the inspection team in Damascus was already discussing the latest claims with the government.
'SLEEPING DEAD'
Opposition activists cited death tolls ranging from about 500 to - by one account - some 1,300 after shells and rockets fell around 3 a.m. on Wednesday. In 1988, 3,000 to 5,000 Iraqi Kurds were gassed by Saddam Hussein's forces at Halabja.
Doctors interviewed described symptoms they believe point to sarin gas, one of the agents Western powers accuse Damascus of having in an undeclared chemical weapons stockpile.
An opposition monitoring group, citing figures compiled from clinics in the Damascus suburbs, put the death toll at 494, with 90 percent killed by gas, the rest by bombs and conventional arms. The rebel Syria n National Coalition said 650 people died.
Activists said rockets with chemical agents hit the Damascus suburbs of Ain Tarma, Zamalka and Jobar during a fierce pre-dawn bombardment by government forces. The Damascus Media Office said 150 bodies were counted in Hammouriya, 100 in Kfar Batna, 67 in Saqba, 61 in Douma, 76 in Mouadamiya and 40 in Erbin.
A nurse at Douma Emergency Collection facility, Bayan Baker, said: "Many of the casualties are women and children. They arrived with their pupils constricted, cold limbs and foam in their mouths. The doctors say these are typical symptoms of nerve gas victims."
A video purportedly shot in the Kafr Batna neighborhood showed a room filled with more than 90 bodies, many of them children and a few women and elderly men. Most of the bodies appeared ashen or pale but with no visible injuries.
Other footage showed doctors treating people in makeshift clinics. One video showed the bodies of a dozen people lying on the floor of a clinic. A voice-over said they were members of a single family. In a corridor outside lay another five bodies.
Syria is one of just a handful of countries that are not parties to the international treaty that bans chemical weapons, and Western nations believe it has caches of undeclared mustard gas, sarin and VX nerve agents.
France, Britain, the United States and others called for an immediate on-site investigation by U.N. chemical weapons inspectors who arrived in the Syria n capital only this week. Moscow, urging an "objective" inquiry, said the very presence of that team suggested government forces were not to blame.

A nurse at Douma Emergency Collection facility, Bayan Baker, said: "Many of the casualties are women and children. They arrived with their pupils constricted, cold limbs and foam in their mouths. The doctors say these are typical symptoms of nerve gas victims."
A video purportedly shot in the Kafr Batna neighborhood showed a room filled with more than 90 bodies, many of them children and a few women and elderly men. Most of the bodies appeared ashen or pale but with no visible injuries.
Other footage showed doctors treating people in makeshift clinics. One video showed the bodies of a dozen people lying on the floor of a clinic. A voice-over said they were members of a single family. In a corridor outside lay another five bodies.
Syria is one of just a handful of countries that are not parties to the international treaty that bans chemical weapons, and Western nations believe it has caches of undeclared mustard gas, sarin and VX nerve agents.

नवलपरासी, २३ असार । कैलालीमा एक युवतिको बलात्कार गरी हत्या प्रयास गरिएको घटना घटेको दुई दिनपछि जीवितै उद्धार गरेको समाचार सेलाउन नपाउदै फेरी यस्तै प्रकृतिको घटना नवलपरासीमा घटेको सार्वजनिक भएको छ ।
प्राप्त समाचार अनुसार जिल्लको कुडिया ८ की एक बालिकालाई अपहरण गरी लठ्याउने औषधि सुँघाएर २ दिनसम्म बलात्कार गरेको आफन्तले बताएका छन् । २ दिनसम्म बलात्कार गरेर उखुबारीमा बेहोस अवस्थामा छाडिएको आफन्तले जनाए ।
यतिबेला बालिका सदरमुकामस्थित महिला विकास कार्यालयको अल्पकालीन सेवा केन्द्रको आश्रयमा छिन् । केन्द्रकी संयोजक निशा चौधरीका अनुसार बालिका अर्धचेत रहेको र मानसिक उपचार गराउनुपर्ने देखिएको छ ।
चौधरीका अनुसार बालिकाले कति बेला आफूलाई केही नभएको र कुनै बेला रूमालले मुख छोप्दा बेहोस भएको र होस आउँदा नांगो अस्वथामा रहेको बताउने गर्छिन् । बालकाको यस्तो अवस्था बलात्कारीले धम्काएका कारणले हुनसक्ने पनि चौधरीको भनाइ छ ।
घटना विवरण अनुसार अनुसार १७ गते घरबाट सम्पर्कविहीन भएकी बालिका ३ दिनपछि गाउँ नजिक उखुबारीमा बेहोस फेला परेकी थिइन् । बेहोस बालिकालाई इप्रकाले उपचारार्थ सरकारी अस्पतालमा नलगी दाउन्नेदेवी गाविसको चौपत्तास्थित सहिद स्मृति सामुदायिक अस्पतालमा पुर्याएको आरोप स्थानीयले लगाएका छन् । पीडित पक्षको तर्फबाट दबाब दिएपछि अस्पतालले डिस्चार्ज गरेको थियो । तर सदरमुकाम परासीस्थित पृथ्वीचन्द्र जिल्ला अस्पतालमा बालिकाको शारीरिक परीक्षण गराउँदा बलात्कार भएको पुष्टि भएको केन्द्रले जनायो ।
