Maoists apologise for Baglung
incident
BAGLUNG, Feb 20 (PR) - Maoists have today
apologised to the parents of two students killed and one seriously injured in a shooting
incident at Prabha Secondary School here on Tuesday.
According to local witnesses, the two students
died and one was injured while the Maoists were instructing them on how to use guns. The
Maoists however claim that the deaths were the result of an accident, caused by the faulty
trigger of a gun, which was being placed on the ground.
Reports indicate that a group of armed Maoists
said to be campaigning for constituent assembly, entered the school premises at 10 am on
Tuesday.
Meanwhile, security personnel have been deployed
in the area to investigate the incident and track down those responsible for the deaths.
