KATHMANDU, June 16: The Young Communist League (YCL) burned copies of Nagarik daily, sister publication of Republica, at Gatthaghar, Bhaktapur, on Tuesday morning over a news report published in its Tuesday edition.



The paper, including Republica, reported that YCL cadre Rajendra Phuyal, whose death led the Maoist youth wing to call a banda on Monday, committed suicide by taking poison. [break]



The report is contrary to claims by the YCL. The YCL has maintained that members of CPN-UML-affiliated Youth Force were responsible for Phuyal consuming the poison. However, a postmortem report stated that there was no indication Phuyal took the poison out of force.
