. KATHMANDU: The Kathmandu chapter of the Federation of Nepali Journalists (FNJ) has strongly condemned the death threat to its member journalist Parbat Raj Ghimire.

Ramesh Kumar Bohora, secretary of the section, said in a statement on Wednesday, “This is not a personal grudge but a deliberate attack on the right to free press and expression which challenges democratic values and the basic spirit of press freedom.”TAG_OPEN_div_17 ”
