evidence: death/suicide report in a local paper

Power_Ranger · Aug 19, 2010 9:38 AM

Everyday, Houston has numerous counts of homicide. A local paper can not include them all.

You're wrong. They DO report all suicides.

I'm not talking about Houston's biggest newspaper reporting on it. I'm talking about local local paper. County paper. San Jacinto paper. In normal situations, deaths do not go unreported.

Example: Let's say this event happened in Jackson Heights, New York City. I'm not expecting New York Times to report on it (they may). But I expect Jackson Heights paper to report on it. A local paper reports all happenings in it's community, even rape and drunk driving.

 The report should have been in 1 of these 32 local houston newspapers. But it's not. http://www.hcnonline.com/

Guys, calm down. Nobody is blaming anyone here... of faking death etc. etc. Let's not question the "Nepalipan" here too... There already 1500 hard earned dollars donated for the cause in one of the sites. Mostly coming from low income Nepalis. So I leave it up to you to define Nepalipan. What we are trying to get here is facts. We need to know for sure this happened. I am not saying RUKDHELL is not telling the truth, but him talking to his relative cop and narrating the information here hardly makes up for a hard evidence. It might as well be that someone else is using this news, which might be authentic, to take donations for their own scam. So doubts here is completely valid. If someone can post, the current state, eg., where is the body, who is in charge of collecting funds, I too will donate what I can and help spread the word around for more donations. Lack of information is causing people to suspect IMHO, not what some call "Nepalipan"...

RUKDHELL, What's the name of the community where the incident happened? You're from Houston right?

I would be f#####g pissed if this is some kind of scam. I already donated my hard earned money. WTF!

This news 100% authentic. I just talked to someone in Nepalese Houston Association... So I am going to ask San to remove this thread.

Rajendra dai is wise enough to come to this decision. If that email is forwarded by him then there is no reason for digging this topic.

This may sound ironic to be posting here but please STOP posting on this topic as it is now offensive the view the title of this thread... The news is 100% authentic and it is verified by Nepalese Houston Association.

MillionDollars · Aug 19, 2010 11:01 AM

I'm now convinced that the news report is true. Thank you for confirming that our donation went for something real.

Power_Ranger · Aug 19, 2010 11:05 AM

Give me his work place address , i will check it our myself , i will post some picture or i will talk someone there and i will reply back !! Still no-one has posted any authentic evidence of his death. Milliondollar : People are confuse that's why they are raising question . Till now we people had supported many family's. Just for few bucks we don't play with anyone emotions and  the is the first case that has soo many question regarding collecting donation.  !! Prankster : you are still making people more confuse , you should had posted screenshot of email that was originally sent by Nepalsese Association of Houston instead of just copy and paste email ....i can write those kind of email too .... look how you people are confusing us .....give me damn address where he used to work ..i will go and check out with my frens ....i am pissed off watching and reading this.

ma_ek_nepali_balak · Aug 19, 2010 11:14 AM

Has somebody found out whether this is fake or real?  If this is real, ppl should be serious. Where are this guy's friends? Don't they have any information or authentic verification? WTF?? If this is real, we should all donate to send his body back home otherwise send these guys to jail.
