LAMJUNG, Jan 21: Nepali Congress (NC) President Sher Bahadur Deuba has blamed the incumbent government for weakening the democracy by infringing on the press freedom.
Speaking at the sixth district convention organized by the Nepal Press Union, Lamjung District Chapter in Lamjung today, leader Deuba further claimed that the government had infringed the judicial sector to save the culprit.
The former Prime Minister was hinting at the Nirmala rape-and-murder case and asserted, "The government has destroyed all the evidence of the incident to save the culprit. The government becomes a bystander as the cases of violence and murders were rampant in the country."
