Ex-PM Oli Arrested

Nepalese police have arrested former Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, local media report. The arrest is related to charges stemming from last year's mass uprising, during which over 70 people were killed in a violent crackdown on protesters.

Oli was forced out of power following the bloodshed, as protests erupted over his government's repressive policies and corruption. Demonstrators took to the streets demanding change, and security forces responded with excessive force, resulting in numerous casualties.

70 Deaths in Violent Crackdown

Last year's mass protests in Nepal marked an explosion of widespread dissatisfaction with Oli's government. During the demonstrations, security forces used live ammunition and violent tactics, killing at least 70 people and injuring hundreds more. The crackdown drew strong condemnation from international human rights organizations and ultimately led to Oli's resignation.

Nepalese authorities are currently investigating those responsible for ordering the crackdown, with Oli's arrest appearing to be part of this probe. Oli's representatives have yet to issue an official statement.
