KATHMANDU, April 18: Police in Kathmandu on Tuesday detained a group of armed conflict survivors who were protesting at New Baneshwor in the city.
The survivors and families of the victims demonstrated with a claim that the proposed bill to amend the transitional justice act was insufficient to address their concerns about justice, compensation and reconciliation.
