KATHMANDU: Former Prime Minister and CPN-UML Chairperson KP Sharma Oli has claimed that conspirators were behind the violence that erupted during last week’s Gen-Z protests.
Speaking out for the first time on social media after the demonstrations, Oli expressed condolences to those who lost their lives and wished for the speedy recovery of the injured.
“The protest was announced as a peaceful movement, as its organizers had said,” Oli wrote. “But infiltrators conspired to incite violence, leading to the tragic deaths of our youths. The government had not given any order to fire directly at demonstrators. The incident involved automatic weapons that are not used by police, and it must be thoroughly investigated.”
Oli reiterated his sorrow over the loss of life, extended condolences to the families of the deceased, and conveyed his prayers for the injured.
