Really sad news. God bless the rested ones. People walk on the road instead of using the overhead bridge in Bhotahity. It had to happen some day due to non stringent traffic rules.

This thing will keep on happening and people would kill by reversing the car as long as the law in nepal is not changed. It is now time to make a third party insurace in car compulsary so that there is does not encourage car driver to reverse and kill the people.

There will be even more deaths in the future. No one cares now. All are bastards, criminals and crooks. I can easily see the devil circling in the sky around Nepal.
raju161 · Aug 5, 2009 8:42 AM
Because Indians are involved in this accident even the Home Ministry is looking into this accident in lieu of the Kathmandu Police investigators. Does Indian Home Ministry get involved when Nepalis die in India?

mR hydE, this is a vicious crime... six precious 'HUMAN' lives has been lost. Can not we keep politics out of our mind here? . . plz. thx. P.S. Even if Indian Home Ministery does give concern, they can and they should, as a responsible nation.

this biplav sapkota singh should be punished. Raksi khayera jatha bhavi gadi chalauda yestai hunchha. But I do not understand this julus for everything. Nepali ko chahi kehi kaam chaina.

what kind of name is that - biplav sapkota singh!!
symlyn · Aug 5, 2009 9:06 AM
No, its 'biplav man singh', not sapkota.
samir28 · Aug 5, 2009 9:11 AM
Anyway, this is a horrific news. Let's pray for the victims of this mishap. And why that Julus or protest rallies? These days do Police in Nepal do random sobriety check on drivers after dark? If they don't they should.
mR. hydE · Aug 5, 2009 9:44 AM
this is ta mr. danfe123 you say that biplav has done something real bad... you know what i dont think so.... i knew him.. he was a fren of fren and he was a real good guy. tell me mr danfe have you ever owned a bike or a car in kathmandu. i have and i know what it is if you hhit someone. going back 7 year the day my mom gifted me my first bike... i was riding and there was this lady who was crossing the road. i might have just touched her and she started crying that i hit her hard. you know what i was more hurt trying to save her and i could not even walk... i was taken to the hospital with a broken leg. all she had was a couple of scratches and then she demanded a ct scan, a full body xray... blah blah.. she said she wants to get treated in a private hospital so i took her to Kathmandu modal hospital... this must be new to you coz you might be the ones who are one of them rigght.... you know, she stayed in the hospital for 5 days for a couple of scrratcches she wanted mineral water to drink,.,. horlicks everyday... she didnt want food from the hospital cafeteria but she wanted it from restaurants... hey i guess thee total i paid for my medical was like 20000 and i the total for her addded up more than 1 lacs... so if i had really killed her i could have got away with 20 thousands on legal fees and thats it... so what do you think mr danfe... and this isnt the onlly incident with me... i had many other incidents and the incident involving my car was even worse when i really hit someone... i spent over 5 lacs... you point out on someone else... i agree there are mistakes in the law but you should also know the people u are dealing with... that dhoti would have bankrupted biplav's family and if you had met biplav you would not have said anything like that and as far as i know he did not drink too much... he was a mild drinker and the cops just made an assumption that he was drunk... you dont know whats going on behind the wheels dude.... so bacck off when you say somehting bad about someone you dont know for sure... get it... this will be good for you....
manishinlawton · Aug 6, 2009 1:19 AM
To Manishinglawtown, I think we should blame the car for that accident. No, we should blame the road for this accident !!! Oh, no, we should blame those pedestrians who were walking on footpath on that awful night. They shouldn’t walk on that footpath when that guy was driving 100 km/hour. They should have avoided taking that street because that guy "Biplabh" was driving his Honda at 100 km/h after consuming alcohol. I am telling all these because as you are friend of friend of driver, me too, friend of friend of one of the Nepali victim!
Tmobile · Aug 6, 2009 8:10 AM
Manishinlawton.....I have also own a bike and car in nepal and so don't be bragging in here. Drive that shit sober fool and you will NOT come incontact with the pedestrians Its that simple. So don't be bragging about this guy who is driving 100 Km/hour ( Pretending the road in KTM built to be a race track) DRUNK and killing people on the footpath. Last edited: 06-Aug-09 09:19 AM

To Manishatlawton, How would you like it if you mother or Father or brother's were one of the victims instead of other's that are in right now. Would you still do the same or say that what this driver did is justifiable......?You sound like a educated but illiterate moron who doesnot think twice before opening your mouth. Think well of what you are saying... Can you imagine how much these families are stressed? They could be parent's of kids who are orphaned now...they could be the sole provider of food and shelter for older parent's/family What is if you were walking on the street and the same thing happens to you, how would you like it? If you had driven well on the road, you wouldnot be troubled by that lady. She probably over did it like you said, but not everyone is like that. Your one bad experience should not be a reason of validity for these kind of absurd behaviour in KTM by driver's. Grow up and Change your vision...... "God keep you out of trouble and give you some brain...that works!"
haribansa · Aug 6, 2009 9:58 AM
man's life should not be put into price in turns of how much you'd be paying. Life is precious, respect life like you love your life. nepal is a failed state if we like to take it that way or not. corruption from top to bottom, class inequality, irresponsibility are rotting the country.
i_my · Aug 6, 2009 10:20 AM
Manishatlawton, have some sympathy and logic. Don't defend some drunk driver who killed six people.
Dalli Resham · Aug 6, 2009 10:23 AM
He was driving around 90-95 Km pH . That is over 60 mPH. That is the motorway or highway speed. Imagine hitting somebody at that speed on motorway. The victim would have no chance of survival. How can somebody even drive at that speed in the speed of kathmandu?
no_quiero · Aug 6, 2009 10:32 AM
Yea, the driver did commit a mistake. Driving at that speed in Kathmandu's road, that too after drinking, is a serious mistake. But I think that the pedestrians' carelessness has also contributed to this accident. Out of the 6 people killed, 4 were walking on the footpath, but 2 were walking in the middle of the road...Well, the road was almost empty as it was already past midnight....But does that mean that one should walk in the middle of the road, instead of the footpath? The speeding car first hit those 2 people walking in the middle of the road, lost control, then hit the wall of the bhotahity subway, broke the iron bar and then hit the other 4 on footpath...If all of those people had been walking on the footpath, perhaps this kind of serious accident might not occured at all...Just my thought...Though its natural to sympathize with the victims, no matter what...
samir28 · Aug 6, 2009 10:51 AM
Everyone, Please do not mix everything with politics. I know that Nepal is having a huge political crisis right now, but some reckless driver killing 6 Innocent lives has nothing to do with current political situation in Nepal. Let the judiciary system take an action against the driver for his/her wrong doing. All these protests and blaming the government and the politicians doesn't make any sense. Let's look at it this way, even if the government had posted the speed limit sign, aren't there people who would break the law. There is such thing as common sense as well, who would drive 90 Km/hr in narrow streets of Kathmandu if you are sane. The driver most have been out of his mind or intoxicated.
simon11 · Aug 6, 2009 11:44 AM
Manish in whichever town, Listen punk, I'm 29 and I've been driving in Kathmandu since I was 18. Driving is not a right, its a privileged. So, when you drink and drive, you're most likely to the same stuff your jackass friend did. I'm well aware of how people in Motorbikes handle their bikes. I wasnt surprised when you had to pay that much money. Naya bike, naya josh timile pani galti ta garerai haneko hola ni ta!! It doesn't matter how good/bad/humble or generous he was................he freaking killed not only 1 but 6 people. Now there are 4 families without parents. You compare that with money??? Your friend was driving a honda civic that costs around 25-26 lakhs. So, i'm pretty sure his family has enough money to properly take care of the injured had he stopped after killing some. There's a distinct impact of a railing like item on the trunk of the car like as you would find it if you hit a railing dead straight. Therefore, its highly likely that your friend backed up and killed the rest of them. Manche ko bichar afno circle ko friend haru ko jastai huncha jasto malai lagcha. Jaba circle ma timi jasta sathi haru jasle (had i killed, it would have just been 20000!!) bhanera sunaune haru hunchan taba samma niyam lai matrai gali garera kei hunna. Had it been your father/mother/brother or sister among the dead, i'm sure your tone would have been different. You, your friend both are fools who compare money with people's lives. I think that asshole needs to be locked up for the rest of his life without parole. It's all about doing the right thing mo-fo!!! Oh my freaking lord.............what have we become!!!!!
MySweetLord · Aug 6, 2009 12:08 PM
samir28....I guess I was missing some eyewitness news...what I heard was they were walking on the sidewalk but he was about to hit a motorcycle and try to avoid that and lost control and hit the curve and hit folks walking on the sidewalk He said he lost control of the car due to high speed while trying to avoid hitting a motorcycle. However, eyewitness accounts collected by the police suggest that he was trying to overtake the motorcycle in high speed. Police also said during the press conference that Singh was drunk and driving the car (Ba 4 Cha 8030) at about 80 km/hr.

Mr hyde..I think you are wrong there...In my opinion UML leaders aka loosers on election are trying to reach out to the public. This doesnot have anything to do with indian citizen being the victims in that accident. Even the PM (another looser in election) had a talk with the security chiefs regarding this accident. But I'm glad they are reaching out to the public. Finally they learned it by hard (UML Neta ko Ghaita ma gham lage jasto chha)
gaine · Aug 6, 2009 3:09 PM
For me it's a serious crime, not the accident. I don't care about the citizenship of victims. 6 people got dead by some reckless driver. It's a homicide. He is should get the punishment as a murderer.
jhyamma · Aug 6, 2009 3:23 PM
My only curiosity is: From now on, will so high a body like Home Ministry or the Prime Minister get involved in traffic accident investigation though the Police Investigators should be doing so on any kind of fatal accidents. Isn't there a redundancy here? Why did the Home Ministry not get involved when more than two hundred people died of cholera in some remote regions of Nepal if they really want to reach out. Shouldn't the government compensate the family members of the victims of the cholera outbreak as well? Bottomline is, any incident or accident should fall under precise jurisdiction so that there will be no confusion among departments/ministries or discriminate priority in handling of crises. One observation I have found here is: People make statements here on Sajha but very few attempt to justify them.
mR. hydE · Aug 6, 2009 3:35 PM
Mr Hyde..MAKUNE did get involved into that cholera after he got back from his trip. Also regarding the compensate to cholera victims MAKUNE did say they were going to compensate Rs10,000/victim's family. (Thats when Dr Dixit issued his article Katti sastro katro or something). But I don't think Miniter Rawal said anything about comnpensating the victims family inreturn he did say he was going to talk to the PM and ministers after the holiday i.e long weekends in nepal). But the police forces did say that they were going to compensate 5000/ per victim. Also regarding Home minister reaching out to the public this is the second incident. If Iam not mistaken I think there was another incident where the home minister did reach out to the public ( I dunno if its UML govt or Maobadi Govt). Will post that article once I come across that article again

Singh no stranger to crime Kantipur Report KATHMANDU, Aug 9 - Biplab Man Singh, whose car mowed down six pedestrians to death on Thursday, has been found to have been involved in several criminal activities in the past. If police record is anything to go by, Singh was not only an alcoholic but also a user of contraband drugs. Only a year ago, Singh was arrested for possessing brown sugar, but subsequently released on a bail of Rs. 20,000. Singh was also arrested along with two other persons with sharp-edged weapons in connection with disruptive activities in July, 2008. This time, he left police custody on a bail of Rs. 28,000. Singh, who was a regular visitor of casinos and dance restaurants, was also reportedly involved in gang fights in the capital. Under the influence of alcohol, Singh's car had early on Wednesday crushed six people, including five Indian nationals, to death in one of the deadliest road accident in the capital. Indian national Deepak Gupta, who was critically injured in the accident, is undergoing treatment at Neuro Hospital, Bansbari. Doctor said his condition is improving. On Friday, Kathmandu District Court allowed the government prosecutors to keep Singh in custody for five more days for further investigation. If prosecuted under Section 161(1) of the Act, Singh may face life imprisonment for homicide. The Act prohibits drunken-driving and has additional punishment for the same. http://ekantipur.com/kolnews.p... Tyo "Singh was also arrested along with two other persons with sharp-edged weapons ......." ko arko 2 jana ma hamro "manishinlawtown" ji pani parnu bhayo ki kya ho?????? -----peace----

so this guy is commenting the other fellows as gaule, gawar and more. Same this shows the level of upbringing and more. I guess why don't we provocative him more and get his identity so that we can use his post as evidence for the court case. In other hand if you think you are big dada then I guess not big as exisitng don in Nepal. This is lame,shame and all about blame..............however one thing i know how this case it going to be done? He will be sentenced for some years then from inside he will be send to police rehabitation then will be fled to other country with new identity and more........coz we all know We have very short memory to remember. ( his statement of guale, pakhe, gawar shoudl be passed to don ganesh lama of kavre, i guess he will take care of him inside the jail) they dont know how difficult is inside in jail than outside.

and today some newspaper said he was arrested with heroine and was charged and case is still going on. He was in bail. Then second case is misbehaving with cops and charging Khukuri on some on This is third......plus there is no guilt in his face..... I remember his father saying " h has never been a loyal and obident son" in some newspaper.
