UML Cadres Take Onto Street Of Nepal Protesting Arrest Of Former PM KP Sharma Oli
A child observes a burning tire set alight by supporters of former Nepali Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli during a protest in Kathmandu, Nepal, on March 28, 2026. The demonstration follows the arrest of Oli on charges related to events during the Gen-Z protest in September of the previous year. Protesters also burn a report by the High Level Investigation Commission, which was formed to investigate the incidents during the Gen-Z protest. The protest aligns with a decision made at a central secretariat meeting at the party headquarters in Lalitpur, which directed mass organizations to lead protests on behalf of the party. The meeting also resolved to pursue legal and political actions against Oli's arrest. The report attributes the response to the protests to criminal negligence and recklessness, citing a failure to act on prior intelligence about potential escalation, which resulted in 77 deaths and significant property damage.
