One dead in clash with Maoists in Nepal town
Published in Saudi Press Agency on 20 - 01 - 2007

A 16-year-old boy was killed when a Maoist activist shot at a group of protesters during a strike in southeastern Nepal, an official said on Saturday.
The clash occurred late on Friday when protesters stopped a vehicle carrying former Maoist rebels -- whose leaders are now members of Nepal's provisional parliament -- in Lahan, 125 km (80 miles) southeast of the national capital, Kathmandu.
District official Chiranjibi Adhikary said one of the
Maoists opened fire on the protesters, killing the boy, Reuters reported.
