A member of the Communist Party of Nepal-Unified Marxist Leninist (CPN-UML) is taken for medical assistance after being injured during a clash with police at an anti-government protest in Kathmandu, Nepal, on March 29, 2026. The protest calls for the release of party chair and former Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli from police custody. Demonstrations have continued in Nepal since Oli's arrest on March 28, following allegations of using force during a protest in September of the previous year. Supporters and cadres of the CPN-UML have been confronting police, demanding Oli's release. Tensions escalated when a dispute broke out between protesters and police, with reports of stone-throwing by demonstrators and baton charges by police. The UML announced nationwide protests after Oli's arrest, demanding his release and the resignation of Home Minister Sudhan Gurung. Protesters also call for an impartial investigation into incidents on September 8 and 9, 2025, and the scrapping of a report led by Gauri Bahadur Karki, which they claim is biased. The party demands a fair investigation into acts of vandalism, arson, and looting during the protests, and legal action against those involved. They also stress the need for a serious probe into the alleged involvement of various non-governmental organizations. The new government under Prime Minister Balendra Shah has accused Oli in connection with deaths during the protests on September 8 and 9, 2025, leading to charges related to homicide and his detention for investigation.
