KOL Report
KATHMANDU, April 23 – The Government in an unexpected move has announced a massive reward to information leading up to the capture of top Maoist leaders. According to a statement released by the Home Ministry, the government has put the price of Rs. 5 million each for three top Maoists leader Puspa Kamal Dahal alias Prachanda, Babu Ram Bhattarai and Mohan Kiran Vaidya. Lesser rewards have also been announced for other Maoist leaders and information on weapons stolen by Maoists from army barracks.
A statement issued by the Home Ministry and Police Headquarters said, “Any person who can capture and hand over these three leaders dead or alive will be rewarded Rs. 5 million.” Person giving information about the whereabouts of these three people leading up to their capture will be rewarded half that amount as reward, the statement said.
The government has also announced lesser rewards for the capture or information on other Maoists leaders. According to the decision, the government is to award Rs. 3.5 million to any person who can capture Post Bahadur Bogati, Nanda Kishwore Pun, Krishna Bahadur Mahara, CP Gajurel and other people on similar level, and hand them over to the security forces dead or alive. Nanda Kishwore Pun (Pasang) is the mid-western regional commander while Krishna Bahadur Mahara represented Maoists during the failed Government-Maoists talks last year.
Similary person who captures and hands over of central committee members to security forces dead or alive will be given Rs. 2.5 million each. Price on Maoist bureau chief or platoon commanders have been put at Rs. 1 million each.
The government has also announced similar reward ranging from Rs. 25,000 to Rs. 400,000 for people who can capture and hand over weapons belonging to the Maoists. Under the scheme handover or capture of General Purpose Machine Gun (GPMG), 40 mm rocket launcher and 81 mm mortar will be awarded Rs. 400,000.

Supost some Indian gangsters (only they have capability to
get inside the Maoist security guards around leaders in India)
take advantage of this announcement and bring the heads of
Maoist leaders to Nepal? What will happen to the guy who brings
head from India? Will Nepal grant prize? Will India seek the person
back to India for the killing of a person living in India? What will
happen if this situation arises. If some gangsters want, they
can achieve earning huge money through this Plan. But, what will
happen after the murder, is not clear?
Well, it is too weak to think that Maoist leaders roam alone so
that peoples can bring their head to get the reward. There will
always be a core group of guards who also get share in the
money looted from Nepali Banks or peoples or jewelaries. So,
for them 50lakhs is not useful, because they can get more if
this war continues and if they can loot more money from banks
and peoples in the name of "PEOPLES WAR".
This plan, may works only at the bottom level in the Maoist
Pyramid. No one will have access to top of the pyramid and there is
only one possibility i.e. Indians are sincere in their words.
