An effigy of ''Ghantakarna'' is erected at crossroads to mark 'Gathemangal' in Bhaktapur, Nepal, on July 23, 2025. This festival, also known as Ghantakarna Chaturdasi, falls on Trayodashi (the third day) of the month of Shrawan (July/August) and is celebrated in memory of the mythical demon Ghantakarna's death. According to legends, the demon Ghantakarna terrorizes villagers by stealing children and women and demands money and other gifts as ransom for their release. His body is painted in red, blue, and black, and he wears a pair of bells on his ears. He looks very scary, and every time he moves, the bells jingle. He gets his name from the bells on his ears, with 'Ghanta' meaning 'bell' and 'Karna' meaning 'ears'. The fear of this dreadful monster keeps people inside their homes most of the time. Even during the planting season, they do not dare to leave their homes. However, one day, a large number of frogs come to the village and begin to croak near Ghantakarna's place. He becomes furious, but the frogs do not stop. They croak even louder, and when he tries to catch them, they jump into the water. He also jumps into the water without realizing that it is a swamp and soon starts to drown. The frogs swarm around his head, and he drowns to death. In this way, the frogs save the village and the villagers from the demon. Effigies built at the turnings and roadways of the locality are later dragged and burned to ashes in areas far from residential areas, mostly at the crossroads. This festival is also celebrated as a symbol of cleanliness, with garbage inside and outside the house cleaned and disposed of systematically. The festival involves cleaning the garbage, calling it a ghost to get rid of it, as it does not pay attention to sanitation during the planting period, and various insects cause grief at this time.

ICE arrests Mayor Baraka outside of a privately owned detention facility, allegedly for trespassing, as he awaits three members of Congress from New Jersey who plan to conduct an oversight tour of the center. The tour does not take place once attention turns to the arrest. Baraka is released several hours later.
