In early 90s a child from a famous bussiness family of Nepal was kidnapped and murdered, even though the ransom was paid and police was NOT informed. It happened in the heart of Capital, a few meters away from then Royal Palace. However,the news never made it to the media.A few years ago a high profile police officer's youngest child was kidnapped, the reason- he didn't "pass" the tender of certain group.The child was later recovered from Nagdhunga. So, the question arises who is safe then?

Nepalese business, political and almost all influential quarters have always suffered from this fear, not just of their children but also of adult kidnapping. An internal implied contract is always there with the likely kidnappers.And, this time it happened to Mr.Celebrity Doctor, a famous Nepalese success story of  "rags to riches" and a person who prefers to flaunt his achievements through flashy possessions.

It's sad that it happened, but it's something worth thinking about. It's a warning towards material orientation which the  "neo-richies" of Nepal are quickly falling for. One should always maintain low profile and live modest life. It's better to take a safeguard on our own rather than depending on the corrupt police force.

Nepal is not new Bihar, in fact it has always been Bihar's closest cousin in crime.
