Copied and pasted from the comment section of Fursad. Sounds like 'Mitjiu' knows exactly what he/she's talking about as I heard similar things he/she mentions below. Please, let's not jump in to conclusion and don't appear to be as as irresponsible as the fursad's 'news'. post by: mitjiu @ 31 Jan 2007 09:36 am Listen up guys, First of all Raju Lama is not "detained? ???" by anyone. No one can detain anyone in the U.S. except by the law enforcement. Thats clear. The Himalayan community has requested all the artist including Nima Rumba to stay behind so that the band members might come back. Unfortunately only Raju and Tsering Gyurme has agreed. Now Raju and Tsering didn't have to. Raju can go back to Nepal anytime he wishes. No one can stop him, not even Himalayan Community. Now about the Band members; Even though they haven't showed up, they still have the visa to stay till end of February. So, don't just assume yet they are not going back. Even if they don't go back its their choice to do so. They have all the rights. Don't blame Raju Lama for that. About the Fursad article; If you call this a news, please do some research before you post anything. Go to the right source (in this case Himalayan Community).Investigate and verify. And please don't use words like "detained" and "vanished". These words are considered very serious and Criminal words in U.S. if not in Nepal. How would you feel if you were deceived by people who have been friends for more than 16 years. Please leave Raju alone at least until all truth comes out. Jai Nepal!!! post by: mitjiu @ 31 Jan 2007 11:43 am To: Dev, Dhiraj and Raj Kumar, I understand that you've all the rights to stay in the U.S. But please contact Raju as soon as you can and clear all this gossip and misunderstanding.
