32-year-old Vasant Sharma from Sisne rural municipality ward number-3 Pokhara, who reached the US through an illegal route, died in the US during treatment. He arrived in America two years ago and was being treated in the hospital for three months after falling ill due to tuberculosis infection.

His sister-in-law Asmita Sharma informed that Basant died on Thursday while being treated at Monmouth Medical Center in Jersey, New York.

Basant left home in March 2078 and reached America in December 2079 after 8 months. According to family sources, Basant, who reached America after paying around 90 lakh rupees to a broker, was admitted to the hospital on December 11. The hospital informed him that he was infected with tuberculosis. The hospital said that his infection had spread from Basanta's lungs to the left side of his brain. From the beginning, he was being treated on ventilator.

His friend Lakshman Sharma said that it was very difficult for Basant, who reached America through human traffickers, because there was no official document there. Basant's house has a mother, wife and two daughters and two brothers.

Through human traffickers, many people from Rukum and surrounding areas have gone illegally to various countries including America.
