That was pretty shrewd of Gagan Thapa to come out with the press release proclaiming that his life is in grave danger. Now that this PR is out in the net, he will have some leverage should the security people come knocking on his door. Very shrewd indeed. And as Poonte said, a well thought out step on laying out the background for possible refugee application. Hyaaaa... now I am being too cynical. However pugnacious these so called Netas like him are, I do hope that if he does get arrested, he will go through due process rather than becoming one more name in the growing "bepatta" list.
