The Janata Samajbadi Party has demanded parliamentary investigation into the Gaur massacre.

Organizing a press conference at the Parliamentary Party Office in Singha Durbar on Friday, the party accused the government of trying to frame the victims by making a deal with them.

Spokesperson Manish Suman said that the party has objected to some of the points of the agreement signed with the victims.

“The investigation process into the Gaur massacre is being taken in the wrong way.  We disagree on many points in the agreement,” he said.

Though the party has no mentality to quit the government, he said, it will depend on the behavior of the government.

“We are politicians. We will not be afraid of cases. But we want to express our dissatisfaction over the way the Gaur incident has been portrayed,” Suman said.

He expressed his doubts over the intention of the government, saying why a deal was made now in an incident that occurred 17 years ago.

Leader Suman also demanded to make public the reports of the past.

“It has been mentioned in many reports that the Maoist foiled the peaceful assembly of the Forum. Why did the government make an agreement after 17 years? Let the reports of the past be made public. Let the facts be ascertained by carrying out a parliamentary investigation,” spokesperson Suman said.

He was of the opinion that there is an involvement of the Maoist in the incident that took place in Gaur of Rautahat on March 21, 2007.

Suman said that the incident occurred due to the mulishness of the then Maoist leader Prabhu Sah.

“It was the Maoist who attacked with weapons in the peaceful assembly of the JSP. The Maoist foiled the assemblies in Bhairahawa and Nepalgunj,” he said.

The JSP leader accused the Maoist of exploding bombs and opening fire in the program venue of the JSP.

Spokesperson Suman made it clear that the incident occurred after the Maoist cadres clashed with the anguished public.
