Notwithstanding the often repeated remarks on the part of Maoist leaders that the seizure of property is not in line with their party policy, formal rebels have again been indulging in such activities in Kapilvastu.
According to media reports, Maoist activists have forcefully grabbed more than 100 hectares land in the district in the last two days.
On Friday, Maoist-affiliated All Nepal Peasants' Association-Revolutionary reportedly captured nearly 34 hectares land at Karma of Banskhor VDC-5 in the district. The land belongs to Abdul Salam Musalman, Jiyau Rahaman and Hitiz Rahaman of Abhirab VDC, it is understood.
According a local Maoist leader, the land was purchased with the amount donated to a Muslim social organisation, Muslim Jamiya Phukaniya Study Centre.
Maoists also captured about 70 hectares land belonging to Prabhatraj Pandey, Pratapraj Pandey, Pradipraj Pandey and Jabbar Musalman of Nandanagar VDC and Dhanendra Karki of Jahadi VDC in the district, it is learnt. nepalnews.com
