Some things to note.
- Organized crime can be controlled.
- What we are seeing for the most part in the Terai today is organized criminal gangs who have been kicked out of Mumbai who have now formed bases in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar.
- The Nepal Police can learn from the Mumbai Police.
- When these criminas enter a town for the first time, it is very important for them to kill some non-complying wealthy businessman in a very public way. It makes their extortion work much easier in the aftermath.
- A specialized branch inside the Nepal Police will have to be constructed to deal with organized crime. That branch will also have to work to deal with the organized crime in Kathmandu valley and other places.

Heavy security should be given to witnesses during the period of trial and also in its aftermath....... Investigation should expose investments of the criminals in various fictitious and proxy names...... The criminal-politician nexus should be broken....... sale of weapons/arms, forcible eviction of tenants, extortion..... Community policing should be organised in the neighbourhoods where theft, robbery and dacoity occur frequently..... crime prone slum neighbourhood areas should be identified and juveniles in that area should be prevented from becoming members of the criminal gangs through various welfare programmes.
