About

Gauri Bahadur Karki is a former judge in Nepal who recently led a high-level probe into the deadly youth uprising that resulted in the deaths of 76 people. The probe investigated the actions surrounding the shootings during the uprising and found former Prime Minister K.P. Sharma Oli and other senior government officials responsible for criminal negligence. The report, led by Karki, has triggered criticism due to its sensitive nature after being leaked to a local publication. The findings of the probe are newsworthy due to their implications for accountability regarding the government's response to the uprising and the potential legal ramifications for those implicated, including the former Prime Minister.
