Bomb explosion at Maoist party office:
Two bombs were hurled at the party office of Maoists at Buddhanagar, Kathmandu on Tuesday night.
One of them exploded and caused slight damage at window panes of the first floor of the office, say reports.
Police officials have said that one of the bombs, which did not explode, was found at the gate of the office. Police said both were socket bombs.
Maoist leader Dinanath Sharma condemned the bomb explosion and has asked the government to take action against the culprits.
Meanwhile, The Himalayan Times has reported that it received an anonymous call from a person identifying himself as an activist of "Nepal Defense Army" claiming responsibility for the blast.
A few days ago, too, two bombs were discovered at the party office premises. They did not go off. Later, the Nepal Defense Army had claimed responsibility for planting those bombs as well.
The Nepal Defense Army is a relatively unknown organisation, which is said to be fighting for the restoration of Hindu state. In the past, it has exploded bombs in Birgunj and Biratnagar.
