Former Ministers Pandey and Rana move to SC NepalNews Three days after their detention, former ministers Ramesh Nath Pandey and Shrish SJB Rana moved the Supreme Court (SC) with habeas corpus petitions that questioned the legality of their detention......... He also added the government has violated their fundamental rights under Article 12 and 14 of the Constitution on the right to assembly and fair trial.I never understood why a commission was set up to go after the likes of Kamal Thapa. Last time we did that the commission worked secretly and quietly handed over its findings to the Prime Minister who slept on it. That is no way to do it.
The first act has to be to declare the parliament supreme. Then the culprits have to be put on public trial that will likely last months. And they will have a right to attorney, of course. But then the government prosecutors will simply have to work hard and present all the evidence against them.
20 dead, 6000 injured. That's the evidence you present. This will be when we publicly document every little detail of the April Revolution. The Nepali people have a right to know. The world has a right to know. These culprits have a right to know.
Conspiring against democracy is a crime, it is treason. But that does not mean we can deprive them of their basic right to a public trial. They do have a point.
Let the seven party alliance make its case in court.
We don't have to fear regression from the Supreme Court, I don't think so. They were the people who released Deuba from illegal detention, for example. But if there might be any possibility, the seven party alliance has a super majority in the parliament and could impeach the judges. But that would not be my first choice option at all. We fought for rule of law. We fought for due process. We fought for fair trials.
A public trial is something we should have demanded. I am glad they are.
Public trials for these villains is extra important because the April Revolution has world history significance. We have to get into the business of exporting revolution. We have to tell the people who are not free today, shut your country down for 19 days completely, and you will get democracy. And while you shut down, don't fear the villains. They will be brought to justice, surely.
We have to send a clear message.
