Maoists attack communist party meeting, 24 injured
2004-09-08
Maoists attacked a party meeting of their former ally Janamorcha Nepal injuring its 24 members, including five central leaders in Dullu village in Nepal's Dailekh district. Party General Secretary and former Parliament member Navaraj Subedi was among those injured in the attack by a group of 150 Maoists, said sources in Janmorcha Nepal, a communist faction which was once a close ally of Communist part of Nepal-Maoists. The condition of Yamuna Bhushal, central member of the party, who sustained injuries, is said to be serious. The party had earned the ire of Maoists for organising programmes to "expose" the rebel's "anti-people" activities.
"Who you calling "anti-people"? BANG!
The Maoists used Khukuri (knife), stones, batons and guns while attacking the party workers and looted their belongings, the party sources said.
And a fun time was had by all.

#5  Nobody hates communists worse than the Maoists. An ironic twist on the idea of permanent revolution.

"Hey, who you calling communist? We're Maoists, dammit!"

#3  24 members - 5 "central leaders"? LOL - the other 19 must have "regional and local" leaders
