students and civilians killed
I am writing to urgently report severe human rights violations occurring in Nepal. Peaceful protesters, including students in uniform and ordinary civilians, have been killed by police using metal bullets instead of rubber bullets while demonstrating against government corruption. Despite this, media coverage has misrepresented the protests as primarily related to the social media ban, diverting attention from the real issue of corruption.
Law enforcement has also attacked hospitals and ambulances, targeting medical staff and patients, violating medical neutrality and international humanitarian norms. Additionally, the ongoing social media ban severely restricts freedom of expression and access to information, compounding the human rights crisis.
These acts constitute extrajudicial killings, attacks on medical neutrality, and suppression of fundamental freedoms guaranteed under international human rights law. I urge your office to investigate these violations, hold those responsible accountable, and ensure protection for civilians. I am prepared to provide documented evidence, including videos and witness statements, in a secure and confidential manner.
