Dr. Maskey was arrested on 16th March 2002. I don't understand why government arrested him? Does he have any connection with Maoist? Naresh Karki Baltimore

Nareshji: Surprise, huh. You wrote something which is not related to porn/sexual harrassment etc. Good to know you are interested in things like Dr Maskey and his movement. Hope the government will release him soon. These people can conceivably act as intermediary between Maoists and the government of Nepal. Moreover, those who are not killing anybody shouldn't be persecuted just because they follow extreme leftist view.I don't think Shyam Shrestha ever advocated killing of innocent people.(though I know he is sympathetic to Maoists.)
