BBC quotes,“ A Nepalese army officer has been charged in the UK with two counts of torture during his country’s civil war in 2005.”

Colonel Kumar Lama a 46-year-old Nepal Army officer, currently seconded to the UN peace keeper in Sudan, was held at his East Sussex home by Metropolitan Police officers on 3rd January 2013.He is charged with intentionally “inflicting severe pain or suffering or human rights atrocities” against Janak Bahadur Raut between April 15 and May 1, 2005, and on Karam Hussain between April 15 and October 31, that allegedly occurred at the Gorusinghe Army Barracks in Nepal.

The arrest issue of Col Kumar Lama is a very strategic movement laid down by the developed country. Developed countries (European Union) have been trying to establish Nepal as a federal republic nation but due to complication of the political understanding, they have not been able to fulfill it. The action directly deals with the sovereignty of Nepal where a third country has no rights to interrupt in the name of justice and human rights.

Points to be noted

-Col Lama currently is a UN soldier posted in SUDAN how come with his arrest UN is not doing

-Col Lama was demoted for his action

-Col Lama had committed the crime here in Nepal why is a foreign country so interested in it

– Human Rights Atrocities issue is not a question of action but is a matter of investigation and diplomacy

-During the insurgency in Nepal, UK had supported the drive against terrorism and had helped Nepal with resources and support

– In technical terms during hour of alert and emergency the state has given a full right to the officials to detail people for interrogation and why is this issue being raised so much
