Karki, a resident of Bhaktapur Gundu, reportedly declined to move to the barracks when an army team arrived at his home. Sources said he would notify authorities if necessary but would not go to the barracks immediately.
Heightened security measures follow the arrests of former Prime Minister and UML Chairman K.P. Sharma Oli and former Home Minister Ramesh Lekhak earlier today. Meanwhile, the UML has announced nationwide protests in response.
