Nepal Maoists Hand Over Weapons To Special Committee

Kathmandu, Sept 1: The Maoist party in Nepal today handed over the keys of its armed wing's arsenal to a Special Committee, a significant move that is expected to boost the vexed peace process.

The keys of the arms containers of the former Maoist combatants have been handed over to the Special Committee representatives at the Third Division of the PLA in Shaktikhor camp in Chitwan district as per the decision made by the party yesterday.

Some 19,200 PLA fighters have been confined in seven cantonments and 21 sub-camps across the country with more than 3,400 weapons following the Compressive Peace Accord reached in 2006.
