So it turns out the Young Communist League (YCL) are not as jolly friendly as they seemed at their little protest yesterday, when so many of them wore nice matching outfits! I found the following exerpts about their recent activities enlightening:
- On 20 March, the Maoist-affiliated Young Communist League (YCL) beat up two businessmen in the capital on the charge of refusing to pay donation. It is a common sight to see the Communist Youth tauting for money, but I didnt realise they went to such extremes to get cash!
- Maoist-aligned Young Communist League (YCL) threatened journalists in Sunsari District, accusing the journalists of being corrupt and threatened the journalists against taking any action against them (the YCL), stating they would take their lives if need be.
Perhaps I wont wander around wearing my YCL visa?!
