Nepal’s National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) today revealed that skeletons discovered one year ago at the Shivapuri area controlled by the Nepal Army have been identified as bones of male persons.
The DNA test of the skeletons was held in Finland. The results came one year after the discovery of the skeletons that were found in the jungle area of the Shivapuri where the Nepal Army has had its permanent camps and control.
According to the NHRC, one soldier of the Bhairabnath Barrack had supplied the secret information that detained persons, including Maoists, were massacred inside the Shivapuri Jungle.
So far, more than 5,000 people have disappeared, informal sources claim. However, the NHRC says about 1,000 people still remain disappeared.
The concerned families have been demanding for the disclosure of this or that information about the status of their family members and relatives.
The concerned DNA specialists, according to the NHRC, are interested in further investigation for more details.
Former Maoist rebels, who complain thousands of their party cadres and supporters were disappeared by the then state, now lead the six-party coalition government.
