Please read today's (June 13, 2006; Tue) newspapers like: Indian Express, Hindu (National), Times of India, Tribune (Chandigarh). Today the nepalnews.com mentioned the 'spokeman for Nepalese Foreign Ministry, Mr Khanal expressed concern over this incident!!! They are mentally sick to epxress ONLY CONCERN, AND NOT CONDEMN!! STILL NO SIGN OF CONDEMNATION FROM CROOK GP AND ALL THE MINI CROOKS, WHERE ARE DPM, FOREIGN MINSTER, NEPALESE AMBASSADOR TO INDIA? How small nations like S-Korea, Philipines etc react when one of their citizens is kidnapped/killed!!! When will Nepal's govt treat people with respect? HOME-MINISTER IS BUSY RELEASING THE MAOISTS-KILLERS AND BUSY TALKING WITH THE KILLER OF 14000+ PEOPLE (ie prachanda). He has no time for commenting on the 'incident'!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nepal's govt has no interest in citizens working overseas, especially the poor people! It is only interested in the BILLIONS OF DOLLARS THAT ARE SENT TO NEPAL EVERY YEAR! This is the bitter truth! May the soul of departed rest in peace and a quick recovery to the injured!

Police perform last rites of 8 Nepalis killed in Kashmir BY SURENDRA PHUYAL NEW DELHI, June 13 - In yet another brutal attack on soft human targets, rebel militants in the strife-torn Indian state of Kashmir have killed nine innocent laborers, eight of them Nepali nationals, hours after kidnapping them from a remote construction site, officials confirmed Tuesday. The militants, belonging to Hizbul-Mujahideen group, fired upon the laborers shortly after they kidnapped them from a building construction site in remote Trenj village soon after they broke for lunch Monday afternoon, according to Anantpur-based DIG Himmat Kumar Lohia. Trenj village is located 120 kilometers southwest of Srinagar, the state capital of Kashmir. And Hizbul-Mujahideen is among the most active militant groups active in the region. They are fighting for a separate and independent Kashmir for the past few decades. Those killed have been identified as Delsha Rishidev, Dallu (one name), Chhota Dallu, Kalu Rishidev, Laxmi Singh, Rishi Tajpuri, all of them of Govindapuri village, Morang; and Chinko Rishidev, of Badanga, Morang; Dina Mandal, of Arkudali, Morang. Their Bihari friend has been identified as Dayanand Rishidev, of Palasmani Kurmiya, Bihar. “All of them were in their late twenties or early thirties, and they arrived in Kashmir in April for seasonal job,” DIG Lohia said from Anantnag. All of them died of lethal bullet injuries right on the spot which a few hundred meters away from the site, he added. Since their bodies were in “bad shape and were decomposing”, he said, “We performed their last rites today afternoon according to Hindu rituals [near the nearest police station in Yaripuri].” Data showing exactly how many Nepali workers are working in the strife-ridden Jammu and Kashmir exist nowhere. But, like many other Indian states, Kashmir is home to hundreds of Nepali migrant workers, who typically migrate for seasonal job and decent income. Several rights groups in India have condemned the brutal slaying of the innocent laborers. http://kantipuronline.com/kolnews.php?&nid=76505

When those Nepalis where executed in Iraq there was a big hue and cry over it. Few manpower agencies got burned down. There were people out in the street in demonstration against the royal government for allowing this to happen. Today, sadly noone seems to care about Nepali lives anymore. This makes you wonder if the people out in the street during the Iraq killings were only politically motivated (against the royal govt) and not really concerned about the killings. If they were really concerned about the killings, then where are they now?

Thanks ss74k... Kalki...all i was looking for was a reliable source.....These brutal murderers should be brought to justice......or just wiped out from the face of the Earth...I guess they don't see their end...or just don't care.....May the departed souls rest in peace !

maybe there is a strong association of nepalis in India or abroad somewhere that can pressure man mohan singh's government about this... there are like lakhs of nepalis in the indian army....protecting indian borders/security that might be part of the reason why the separatists/muslims hate nepalis anyhow...is there anything we can do? it's time for grassroot action when the government is so corrupt and spineless thanks karma

May their soul rest in peace, and yes the govt should send strong words atleast to condemn the act, even if necessary calling the Indian ambasador and presenting it in written form. That will send a strong message that now on Nepalese govt will not remain dumb and blind witness to the tragedy of its citizens within and with out Nepal.

there should be pressure to hang these bastards! or life in prison with no parole karma

What are you talking karma Gurung? When terroist and killers are worshipped in Nepal .You are talking to capture Terroist in India and punish them.What is 8 people? when those terroist who has blood of 12k+ people and cries of millions are hanging out freely in Nepal. When govt. is releasing terroist in Nepal .Would Nepal govt even be able to speak about things happening in another country?

yes, there should be an explanation as to these killings? Why the Nepalese laboreres were killed is a mystery. The party leaders are too busy kissing the indians at this time and so cannot raise their voices. They should act now not become puppets forever to the Indians.

Where are those people who was protesting in DC, New York and else where who were saying Gyane chor desh chod.... Where is Samudaya website? Why is there no protest infront of indian embassy or even infront of Girija's office when our innocent people like all of us who went abroad got gun down by these terrorist... to me all these so called protestors are bakumphuse... May their(those labourers) soul rest in peace.

NOW I KNOW WHY NEPALI GOVT IS QUIET .BECAUSE THE DEADONES ARE POOR DALIT!! SEE HOW HYPOCRITE GOVT . THIS IS!!!! implementation of what???oh ya what was that No descimination crap.Great see what is happening . who descriminates more? and people where cheering for another stupid declaration speech!

Wanna know why there are no protests from SO CALLED LEADERS like NEPE, POONTE, and gang ? he he Cause there is no Glamor in protesting on such petty matter. REMEBER THEY ARE AIMING FOR THEIR FUTURE KURSIIII. AND PROTESTING ON THOSE PEOPLE KILLED IN KASHMIR AIN'T GONNA GET THEM ANY KURSIII. SO THERE YOU GO....HE HE Besides I am surprised how these people ended up in Kashmir to work anyway ? Don't they know how dangerous the situation is out there ? I mean what did they expect ? They they would be welcomed with flower garlands ? And the same goes for people who went to work in Iraq. When you work so close to the line of fire, you're bound to get burnt sooner or latr.

have some sympathy for people that are poor and desperate man u never know what fate has in store for you...so a little compassion does not hurt thanks karma

I have compassion and sympathy for the affected people but NOT FOR OPPERTUNIST POLITICIANS OR LEADERS.
