Editor Krishna Sen released

By Rabindra Upreti

JALESHWOR, MAHOTTARI, March 15 - Krishna Sen, the Editor of the pro-Maoist Janadesh weekly who had been detained at Jaleshwor Jail following his dramatic disappearance since Saturday, was released Thursday evening.

He was released and handed over to a group of journalists at 4:16 p.m.

Sen was arrested on charges of possessing illegal weapons two years ago and was kept in custody in Rajbiraj Jail. He was released on Saturday following a habeas corpus issued by the Supreme Court. However, he was reported missing even after his release from Rajbiraj Jail.

He was re-arrested on Sunday night under the Public Security Act. After receiving a directive from the Mahottari District Administration office, Jailer of Jaleswor Jail, Basudev Dahal handed over the detained editor Sen to a group of journalists and a human rights activist.

"I’m still feeling insecure," Sen said after the release. "I doubt if the government is really sincere." The journalists are said to have kept editor Sen in a secluded place in view of psychological state.

Sen’s release came days after journalists across the country vehemently protested against the government’s move to re-arrest him. Sen, today, said he is still not sure whether he is free or not.

"The government could do anything to me on my way to Kathmandu," he said. The journalists and human rights activists are discussing ways to send him safely to Kathmandu.

Earlier today, members and councillors of the Federation of Nepalese Journalists, the umbrella organisation of journalists, pondered over whether or not to seek international opinion or pressure on the deteriorating security of Sen.

Senior journalists, prominent human rights activists, professional lawyers and Members of Parliament were present at the programme.
