| [The Himalayan Times newspaper attributed the fighting and station closure to the politics of the news covered by the station--that the conflict "deepened after the station manager refused to broadcast live the public speech of Maoist Chairman Dahal from Nepal Academy last month." Dahal is leader of the "establishment maoists" in Nepal. -- Frontlines ed.] |

| Radio Mirmire (89.4 MHz) , a FM radio station run by the UCPN (Maoist), has been shut down after a group of employees allegedly close to the Maoist party establishment took away its equipment Sunday night.A group of employees led by former director of the FM Bishnu Prasad Sapkota barged into the station office at Anam Nagar at around 11:30 pm and took away the computers and the transmitter.Employees involved in the capturing have said took such a step as they were not receiving salary for a long time.Employees supporting the Mohan Baidya faction have accused Sapkota of stealing the equipment.Employees and managers divided into two rival camps of the Maoist party are known to be at loggerheads for some time. nepalnews.com |
