Mad dog, what you are saying about the ways of defaming maoists may be happening now. Maoists are being defamed under grand design especially by UML if the so-called analysis of some people is true.

I recently had a conversation with a guy who claims himself to be YCL now who was a young and very dedicated student leader of UML few years ago. He said that UML was secretely active to defame Maoist and YCL, so they created Youth Force. When I expressed my disbelief, he challanged me to name any geninune UML cadre in Youth Force and he went on telling me that Youth Force is run and organized by a bunch of gunda's and criminals like Chakre Milan who run illegal businesses and invlove in extorting. He even told me that those two guys who were killed a months ago were also involved in criminal activities, were said to visiting Manakamana to file a tender for a contract (thekka-patta) and they were killed by their own gang members after a quarrell in contract and other issues, not by YCL. 

I don't know the authenticity of this claim but there may be some reason to believe that Youth force has many memebers who were involved in extorting and other illegal businesses in various cities (eg, Dharan, Narayanghat, I heard some notorious gundas in these two cities in the past are now the member of Youth force) in Nepal. There is some reality in his claim because there was already one terrorizing group called YCL and instead of voicing strongly against YCL and it's activities, UML went for creating another terror group called Youth Force. Now they terror people and businessmen and extort money, grab tenders, etc as well as fight each other. YCL and YF's  fights may not just be for political reasons, but for business purpose as well i guess.
