सत्तरी बर्षय आमाको दर्दनाक कहानी : चुडिएको हात दुई बर्ष देखी आँफै सँग हुदा कस्तो भयो होला यी आमालाई ? कल्पनै गर्न न सक्ने अनौठो घटना हाम्रै नेपालमा भेटियो
Devi Sunuwar is still demanding justice for the killing of her daughter Maina, then 15. Soldiers detained Maina in February 2004, though the army vehemently denied it at the time. Under sustained pressure from the international community, including from the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), the army finally proceeded with an internal inquiry and military prosecutors brought three soldiers allegedly responsible before a court martial.
According to army records, the accused were only charged with minor offenses of using improper interrogation techniques and not following procedures during the disposal of Maina’s body. They were sentenced to six months in prison, effective from March 2005. Since they had already spent that time confined to barracks during the period of investigation, the officers were set free. “The government is protecting murderers,” Sunuwar told Human Rights Watch. “But I will keep fighting till I get justice.”
