Goverment kill Journalist Posted on 26-Jun-02 11:03 AM

The Federation of Nepalese Journalists has called on the government to give details about the condition of a jailed newspaper editor.

The group's president Taranath Dahal made the demand after newspaper reports suggested that Krishna Sen, the editor of a pro-Maoist newspaper Janadisha, had died after being tortured.

The Nepalese authorities have yet to comment on the reports.

Nepalese journalists have accused the authorities of tightening restrictions on the press, and say journalists have been harassed -- and in some cases arrested or tortured -- since a state of emergency was declared last November.

The editor was not only the journalist but also a wanted maobadi leader. I am glad that at least there is one less maobadi leader in the face of this earth.

Sage's Footnote: [People may also complain that sometimes I accept the media (such as the report by the Christian Science Monitor's Scott Baldauf) and other times I accuse it of having bias. Well, this is true. There is an inherent bias, but sometimes a useful story gets on the AP or Reuters. It may not be printed in the Washington Post or New York Times, but you can access it on the internet. And anyway, what I am talking about is a general pattern, not complete censorship. -sage]

Sage as usual collects news in such a way that he can portray only Maobadis
are suffering. He never see the other side of story. You just go through
all his collections and including this one, you will find who he is? Sage, are you going to make fun "joke" on the "International Observer", just the way today,
Nepali Human Rightists are jokes in Nepal. I feel you are one of those
HR jokes, as an "IO". Prove by action not by volume of writings. Till now
you are a joke of being an unbiased "IO".

Recently Maoists abducted two armymen from their home while on leave.
Then, the Maoists killed the armymen, and our great "IO" did not feel
it important to quote this news anywhere, because he is un-BIASED IO.
Keep up good work, Mr. IO Sage.

After reading the news on those two armymen who were killed by Maoists,
I did not feel any pity on reading the death of Krsihna Sen in Police
custody. In the past, Maoists including Krishna Sen, had one sided
killing spree, and now Govt. and maoists are running killing spree. We
are at the middle watching them, and whoever wins, will become hero
and who ever will loss will become villian. Well, Krishna Sen like Devendra
Parajuli, were all involved in toturing peoples who did not support
their party or movement, and now the things have mirror image. They
are suffering of their past. We at the middle are not yet to give conclusion
and our observation is that both are not doing good. Let them continue.

dear netters,
i don know in detail the level of activity performed by this late Mr.Sen,, but for sure he was among the moabadi mitras with price tag. looking at the present situation,, i say that he was not a good man to our nation

But this does not qualify that the govmt keep silent on his death (he died inside a police custody). whatever level of crime he be involved in, his cause of death should be in public (or at least to his family members). I agree that they are criminals according to our law and govmt strategy,, but the way he died does not look fair. i am sorry to hear they way he died.

i really feel sorry for his family. every one in the family wishes to know how and in what condition their loved ones passed away ( or at least what was his final words and interests). The govmt has the right to punish him on legal grounds but crossing the social limits is no good. but this is one of the minor cases that has made me frustrated with our country system.

Dear Sajha mitras,, pls don make an insane conclusion that i am supporting a moabadi. he was a criminal (its his weak point) but this does not mean that the govmt lose its responsibilities.

I WISH WE ALL SAJHA NETTERS EXPRESS SYMPATHY TO THE FAMILY OF LATE MR. SEN
I PRAY GOD TO HELP THEM GAIN PATIENCE IN THIS HARD TIME.

If the news about Krishna Sen's death in custody is true, it is most despicable and heinous. It's an awful thing to do for a "democratic" government headed by a Prime Minister who has himself spent some 10 years in prison and was tortured heavily.

There is no doubt Krishna Sen was a *criminal* who incited and most probably participated in violence against civilians like himself while masquerading as a journalist for Janadesh. Absolutely no doubt at all. But this doesn't give any government the license to just capture and kill an unarmed civilian. Yes, if Sen was leading an armed attack and had died in a genuine armed encounter, one would have regretted, but accepted, the loss. But the government can't just stoop to the level of the terrorists and start behaving like them. Tyo jangali raaj bhai haalyo ni. Sarkaar ra atankakari ma ke farak? There is such a thing as due process in a democracy, even when certain clauses have been suspended under the Emergency.

Except those engaged in active combat and armed encounters, all other Maoists must be captured, held in custody, and tried as per the laws of the land. I would however advocate a special court to deal with terrorism to expedite violence-related hearings and verdicts. The kingdom seems to have no provisions on this as yet.

*If the news is true* it's a great shame for the Deuba government. Deuba should realize that future democratic governments may charge him for crime against humanity together with the real criminals and despots - Baburam and Prachanda - if he sanctions and condones this kind of extra-judicial killing. While I seriously doubt the killing happened, if it happened, on the direct orders of the PM, at the end of the day, the PM is morally responsible for the actions of his thuggish Police force. This is really awful. I condemn it unambiguously.

--------

I am also disappointed to read what Hahooguru-ji has written above. HG-ji, Maoists are committing the most unimaginable crimes, and they are a pathetic bunch of heart-less terrorists. You, I and others have condemned the Maoist actions unequivocally in the past and do so today as with their killing of the two Dalit army-men yesterday. They are terrorists who ought to be crushed - legally and physically. But the state can NOT reduce itself to tit-for-tat tactics and behave like the terrorists themselves. The state has to be more responsible and honor due legal and constitutional processes. Except under armed encounters when rules of the game are complicated by right-to-defend-self factors, the state can NOT go on a killing spree. And democrats can not stand bemused as a neutral party when this happens. I kindly request our respected HG-ji, a sympathizer of democracy as he is, to consider changing his views on this.

Okay, let's wait for some authentic news about 'killing of krishna sen in police custody'. I read this news in yesterday's janaaastha- 'krishna sen pashupatima kharani' and was waiting for government explanation.
