Mary Pradhan, Asha Pradhan and Suresh Maleku were released by authorities from Hanuman dhoka after 9 days of questioning. Asha Pradhan's light political affiliation was enough for them to tie her and her family with insurgents that were living close by and were caught with pressure cooker bombs. The insurgents were immediately killed but Asha Pradhan's family was wrongfully picked to be questioned, harassed and sadly accused in the process. They were let go after no evidence was found with defamed characters, emotional scar that will never heal and trauma that will haunt them for rest of their life. Most importantly, their trust towards government is forever tarnished and it is tragic that in all of this, only innocent people are the ones who suffer. Last time I checked through her cousin, Mary was still shaken up and hadn't fully recuperated from the incident and it had been almost been 3 months. So far, she has lost 2 semesters of schooling abroad and her dream of practicing law is on hold. Currently, her family is trying to sell their properties to move out of the country for a new start. I can't wait to meet up with Mary, not to talk about her fiasco or pick up the wounds, which will never go away but to experience the thing we had together, sweet little peaceful journey
