6 May 2007 Bardiya ,

Nepal Yuvraj Adhikary, a local correspondent of Radio Nepal , was attacked by the cadres of Maoist aligned Young Communist League (YCL) on 2 May at Kusumba market of Bardiya, mid-western district of Nepal.

Adhikary had reached Kusumba market to collect news about the clash between the security forces and a group of refugees and freed bonded laborers led by YCL. The clash had erupted between a group of armed police force that was deployed at the market for the border security and the group led by YCL. While Adhikary was reporting the news, the YCL cadres hurled stones at him and attacked him with sticks.

They even chased him for about 500 meters. He then ran and locked himself inside a bathroom of a neighbor and thus saved himself. The YCL cadres then reached his home, located near the market, and broke the windowpanes of his house. Adhikary had received threats from the YCL cadres in the past for writing news about them.

According to Yuvraj Shrestha, president of FNJ Bardiya branch, Adhikary has been receiving threats through telephone in the name of YCL cadres saying that they can abduct or kill him anytime.

Federation of Nepalese Journalists (FNJ) has condemned the incident and has demanded the concerned party to take action against the guilty and provide proper compensation to the victim.
