Maoists thrash NC-D worker

KATHMANDU, Nov 1 - In yet another blatant violation of the ceasefire code of conduct, Maoists brutally thrashed a Nepali Congress - (Democratic) activist in the capital.

On Sunday evening, Maoists abducted Prabin Khadka of Bishnu Budhanilkantha VDC-4 from Chu Fan Restaurant, Maharajgunj, and released him on Tuesday evening after beating him mercilessly. Khadka was admitted to Medicare Hospital, Chabahil, in the evening, with deep bruises on his soles, thigh and back.

Maoists handed over Khadka to his relatives at Brighter Tooth Paste Factory in Thimi. "After abducting me, they hit me with sticks on different parts of the body," Khadka, 30, said. He claimed that the Maoist tortured him and added that they had beaten him over a hundred times on the temple, charging him with being involved with gangsters Chakremilan and Tejendra.

The victim's brother Shyam Khadka said that before abducting his brother, the Maoists had threatened him (Shyam) over telephone and demanded he surrender to Maoists.

Binod Bhattarai, NC-D chairman of Kathmandu Constituency number 3, informed that Khadka was released when party president Sher Bahadur Dueba and minister of state Ramesh Lekhak took initiative in the matter.

Ah, the bearers of progress and humanity, proud heirs to Stalin-Mao-Pol Pot legacy, spreading the "good news" like the bruises on Prabin's body!

Same things happened in autumn 1947: 4-5 months before communist takover in Czechoslovakia. Democratic MP Dr. Hora complained of communists excesses of EXCATLY the same kind, while the country was still nominally democratic, to the then No.2 communist leader, General Secretary Rudolf Slánský. He laughed it away saying: "We have different democracy!". 2 years later he was arrested, tortured, and confessed. In 1952 they hanged him. His old comrades. Something Baburam Battarai should keep in mind: Revolutions, after devouring it´s innocent victims, tend to turn on it´s own: Trotsky, Slánský, Lin Biao.

Pity we cannot reverse the order...
