BRRPC concerns 'shooting' a youth
Kathmandu, December 17: Bhutanese Refugee Repatriation Programming Council (BRRPC) has expressed serious concern over shooting an innocent exiled Bhutanese youth on December 13.
Issuing a press statement on Monday, BRRPC has strongly demanded action against those involved in the shooting.
Unidentified two persons who came on a motorbike ride had shot Arjun Subba of Beldangi-I camp near Sangam Chowk in Damak municipality in Jhapa district on December 13.
The release, signed by its chairman Bhakta Raj Giri, has also said BRRPC's deep attention has been drawn towards recent decision of the Royal Government of Bhutan (RGOB) to declare jail term to 30 civilians ranging from 5-9 years.
Meanwhile, BRRPC has urged international communities, rights bodies and government of Nepal to probe into such atrocities and work towards releasing them at the earliest. Bhutan News Service
