The report submitted to Prime Minister Sushila Karki by the Gauri Bahadur Karki-led inquiry commission has not been made public yet. Despite continuous protests by the Gen-G group, pressuring for the report to be made public, the government has not shown any interest in making it public.
After the cabinet meeting on Sunday, Home Minister Om Prakash Aryal had said that the report would be made public in its entirety on Monday.
However, speaking to Kantipur on Tuesday, he said that the report is currently under study and a decision will be made only after that. “I will have to discuss this issue with the Prime Minister,” said Home Minister Aryal.
The cabinet had accepted the Karki Commission report and decided to study it. The commission submitted the report to Prime Minister Karki on February 24.
In the report, the commission of inquiry into the incidents of 23 and 24 Bhadra has recommended that the then Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, Home Minister Ramesh Lekhak and high-ranking officials be investigated and action taken.
The commission had recommended that the government investigate the then Inspector General of Nepal Police (IGP) Chandrakuber Khapung and the then Chief District Officer of Kathmandu Chhabi Rijal for criminal offenses. 76 people were killed in the government repression of the Gen-G movement on 23 Bhadra and the riots on 24 Bhadra.
The Karki-led commission included former AIG of Nepal Police Vigyanraj Sharma and lawyer Bishweshwor Prasad Bhandari. After they submitted the report, Prime Minister Karki thanked the commission and said, "You have completed the work, now we will do whatever needs to be done."
Prime Minister Karki said that she would decide whether to make the full details public or just release the conclusions after reviewing the report. The police are objecting to some of the issues in the report, saying they are demoralizing.
