KATHMANDU, July 9
: Locals of Pepsicola area have obstructed vehicular movement since early Thursday morning demanding action against those responsible for the death of two local students, police said.



Meanwhile, at 9:00 a.m., the protesters backed down and opened the road for vehicular movement. They had enforced a chakka jam and have burnt tires in the morning.



The two locals were among the four who were lynched by a mob at Dhunchopakha, Bhaktapur on Tuesday over kidnapping suspicion.



It later turned out to be a retaliatory attack following a brawl between teens of Pepsicola and Dhunchopakha on Monday. The other two are still undergoing treatment at B & B Hospital.
