Suspicious Packages Trigger Bomb Scare in Nepal

Nepal Police identified suspicious packages in at least 28 places across Nepal on June 25, 2019.

However, it clarified that not all packages are bombs and some of them were installed to create fear among people.

“Suspicious packages found in 28 places across the nation since morning. All of them are not bombs. Some were planted to create fear. At least two suspected packages were found in Kirtipur and Jawalakhel in Kathmandu Valley but it proved to be a hoax,” said Bishowraj Pokharel, Nepal Police Spokesperson.

The recent findings come just a month after the triple blasts of Kathmandu claimed four lives and injured 9 others.
