IN-Depth Story

10 months ago

[Radio playing]According to Saudi's Al jaljeera media, those nepali were kidnapped by army of Ansar Al-Sunna group. This was the news from Radio Nepal in 2061 Bhadra 6 . For the employment in five star hotel, those Nepali group went to Jordan but they were kidnapped in iraq. And they kept those Nepali photos in their website. They were showing their passport in that photo and even in one photo they were made to hold the America's flag. Everyone was scared and aware of what was happening, but t
he reason behind it remained unknown. After 10 days they publish another video on their website where In the allegation of collaborating with the USA, one person was killed by beheading, while the other 11 were shot dead . King Gyanendra and PM Sher Bahadur Deuba cannot do anything rather than sitting and watching. Those Nepali who were in Iraq were taken by one manpower company for the job in Jordan's 5 start hotel. But how did they went to Iraq rather than going Jordan and why did they were ki
lled by that Iraq group even they had done nothing to anyone. [Intro] [Music Playing].. The time was of 2060 - 2061 B . S. Gyanendra Shah was king of Nepal and Sher bahadur deuba was Prime minister Maosit revolution was growing inside. Gyanendra was planning to gain all power in his hand by removing deuba. Sher Bahadur Deuba was thinking to govern for long time by convincing king. No one was caring about the increasing unemployment and economic crises in Nepal. There was crowd of people leaving
country. [Man speaking] Because of the unemployment in nepal we are going to abroad due to responsibilities. We are compelled to go abroad as we are responsible for running the household and educating our sons and daughters. For the sake of employment rather than gulf countries Nepali were ready to go in war affected countries also. About 400 manpower companies were operating Nepal. They were marketing in their own way where they claim to take nepali to abroad for the employment. At that time
in newspaper sometimes there was birthday wish of someone from royal family or sometimes there was government announcement. [Music....] But later those newspaper were full of advertisement of those manpower companies. Reputed media house were earning thorough those manpower's advertisements. At that time newspaper were also limited to rich and economically well established families. And during that period in inside kantipur news paper we get one advertisement. Advertisement: Cook wanted for Jor
dan's 5 start hotel and monthly salary NRS 26, 500 That ad was published by moonlight manpower private limited. Similarly that ad was published by Channel Nepal and Space time network also. At that time there were no TV in villages and newspapers were also much limited at that area. But there were some brokers who have basic reading writing skills and whose house has supply of Kantipur newspapers. They go everywhere taking that news and convince those nepali youth whose economic condition was po
or. And mainly those who were illiterate, they search those people convince them and they bring them to those manpower companies in Kathmandu. Those broker used to take commission from both manpower and those nepali youths. Similarly from anywhere of nepal those types of broker bring such people who had no option other than going abroad to manpower companies Moonlight manpower or any other manpower used to take broker fee from those nepali youths. Consultancy job is to pay the airlines one was
ticked only. But those manpower companies used to charge 10 times in the name of job and ticket to those nepali brothers form villages. In the seek of job those nepali brothers were even ready to sell properties, land and houses to go abroad. Even after knowing all this our weak government didnot took any action against those companies. And did not even think about creating employment opportunities for people in Nepal. In dream of better job, after returning they don't have to do any hard work,
building beautiful houses for parents, buying beautiful jewelries for wife and sending children to best schools " Jit bahadur tamang from gorkha came to kathmandu including Prakash Adhikari from jhapa, Bishnu hari thapa from lamjung, Sanjay Kumar Thakur from dhanusha and Ramesh Khadka from lalitpur and many more ... Dreaming of good life ahead after going abroad they were at airport and at that time one person form moonlight company gave them an envelop. And they told them to give this envelop
to the person who will come to pick up you and warn them if they open that envelope they will sent then back . [Man Speaking....] And those nepalis obeys that person and didnot open that envelop. If they have opened that envelop in the airport this incident could have never happened. Those Nepalis went from Nepal to Quatar and Quatar to Jordan and after reaching airport they were picked up by 2 Jordan's citizens. Our nepali brothers gave them those envelop to them and those Jordan's people seize
d their passport. Those seized passport were used to give them back only during travelling and border crossings. Those Jordan's citizens took them to a old house of Amal city. After reaching their they see that there were already 20-22 Nepalese in that house. They all were brought there to give job in jordan's hotel. 30-35 Nepali were in one house where someone was there for 10-12 days and even increment was going on. Now, they started to fear. Thinking of working in 5 start hotel after reaching
there but they were kept as hostages in dark room. They used to ask when to work but those Jordan's citizens used to give reassurance by saying just in few days. Even after that much also they were hoping someday that hotel's owner will come and take them back to hotel. They were not able to think what was going on. Now let's see this story from another side. During 2003 AD George W. Bush was president of America. America was in war with Iraq. There were American military camp in different loca
tions of iraq. Those military camp contains thousands of soldiers. In worldwide in all kind of military operation like cook, cleaner and helpers there were soldiers only. But USA didn't think that will be better. They used to keep their cook and helper from poor countries rather than their own military persons. Because of honest and good work from nepali even in low paying scale they used to give preference to Nepali people. Even labor market was 50% down because of nepal or any other 3rd world
countries. Similarly, for bringing low pay scale labor from poor countries they have given responsibility to KBR (Kellogg Brown & Root) company. Rather than responsibility they have given tender to that company and even that period vice president Dick Cheney has invested in that KBR Company. As now also in KBR website they have written "We deliver" as their motto. They are saying that they are supplying science and technology related materials to government and private companies in their websit
e. But at that time they were supplying humans. By taking tender with US government through Jordan's Dawat named person job was out source though al nadeen body shop and from that to morning star to bring such labour from poor countries. Dawat was the member of the royal family of Jordan. And Al Nadeen was operating body shop. If any organization needed body or low paying scale labor then that organization used to contact Al nadeen. He had open a shop for supplying body only. And that morning st
ar gave this job responsibility to moonlight manpower company of nepal. Such that moonlight also published the ad of jordan 5 star hotel vacancy. Without cross checking kantipur published that advertisement. Channel nepal and Space time network also did same thing. After looking that advertisement in seek of earning money those nepali by searching loan they came to moonlight manpower and gave the money. And small piece of that money by keeping in envelop the moonlight company gave this to those
jordan's people through those nepali brothers. In jordan, nepali people used to send through morning star to al nadeen body shop and though al nadeen body shop to Dawat and from dawat to KBR. And all these operation was operate with the money which was given by those nepali brothers through loans. They were selling themselves through that money and became hostages in jodran's dark room. Morning start person Mansoor was used to get the 300 - 500 US dollar for one person. These things was written
in The GIRL FROM KATHMANDU by Cam Simpson After spending some days slowly in Jordan some vehicles used to came to pick up them. Later reveal that in one house only there were 30-35 people. But in the name of job in 5 star hotel around that area there were about 80 nepali people. And those also were going to supply to american camp present in iraq. To sent those nepali to that camp they need to travelled through Amman to Baghdad highway. That highway was too risky as it was affected by war. Many
hijackers were present in that route with AK-47. And During that interval more than 300 truck were robbed and more than 40 jordan's drivers were killed. Due to this reason there was hard to find the drivers for that route. That highway was also called Mad Max Highway or Highway Through Hell. America was well known about the danger in that road. And KBR also knew that. Due to this reason and danger environment american citizens were used to travel through flight. But flight route was too expensi
ve. And they find money greater than those nepali people's life who were brought to work for them. And despite being danger they decided to move those nepali people through that route to reach american base camp. This is the event of August 19 2004. During travelling through that route in about 40 miles south some people who where dressed in iraq security forces stops the vehicle with 12 nepalese. They give order to driver to leave those nepalese there as America's soldiers will come to pick up
them. Foolish driver believe that and by dropping those nepalese there he returns back. All other vehicles and rest 68 nepalese reached that military camp but those 12 nepalese were kidnapped by iraq's rival group. [Man Speaking] That iraq's group upload the video and photos of those kidnapped nepalese in their website. Those nepalese were crying, shouting claiming they were innocent and time to time they were taking the name of the moonlight manpower company. They were asking help to the gover
nment to save them. After publishing video in that website that news was first telecast by Al jaljeera. And nepali media got the news after the BBC and AL jaljeera published the news. This was the event of 19th august. After 12 days they killed those 12 nepalese. And by uploading that video to the website they were warning the america and all the countries who were supporting america. [News Reporting].... To save those 12 nepalese government have full 12 days. we can see the carelessness of nepa
l government during those 12 days by reading this article of nepal times. At that time going Iraq for job was banned by Nepal. But after this also regulation and implementation was weak. That time Labour Minister Raghuj Panta has said it as open secret that thousands of nepalese are in iraq. At that time Foreign Minister Prakash Charan Mahat has tried to contact that iraq group through AL jaljeera. But his pretentious try was unsuccessful. Nepal government has established a 3 members organizatio
n for investigation of how nepalese were going iraq ? But that organization or group have done much carelessness and shown lazy behavior as for some days it didn't started the job also. When they started working there nepalese were already killed. It was not impossible to save them as at that time the indian government has also rescue their indian citizens from similar event. [Man speaking....] After this event the investigation was started nationally and internationally. During investigation th
ere is one pattern can be seen. [Music...] Blame Someone Else. Kantipur who published that ad blames to Moonlight Manpower. Moonlight manpower whose moto was right worker at right job says that it's job is to send people to jordan only after that jordan's brokers job starts. Those Jordan's citizens who picked up those nepalese claim that their job is to just keep them for a while until order will come. Drivers were blaming to KBR and KBR was blaming to government. All were blaming each others. A
nd after completing their job what happens they even don't know. [Cam Simpson speaking....] But during research what we got that moonlight manpower already aware about the nepalese were going to iraq rather than Jordan. And after knowing all these also they were sending nepalese by giving them reassurance. And all these were going under moonlight manpower owner Prahlad Giri. After hearing this news in nepal new movement starts. Nepalese people burning with rage. People were grouping from differ
ent locations in capital kathmandu. And start to smash the manpower companies. They were burning the airlines houses and damaging the media houses. At that time reputed news channels like Kantipur, Channel Nepal and Space time Network were smash in such a way that due to economic damage channel nepal and space time network got shut down for lifetime. Kathmandu was full of curfew. That movement was growing such a way that if people in that movement saw any muslims then they would killed them. In
that movement, 2 people were and millions of worth infrastructure were damaged. After some days those nepalese body return back to nepal in coffin. their parents lost their child, their wife became widowed and their children became orphan King Gyanendra convey his message by saying I am stunned. Prime minister request people to stay calm through FM and gave bereavement leave next day. But after going through all these we still haven't learned anything. Our foreign policy never changed. Labour po
licy is same as before. No one have taken good step for employment opportunities in Nepal. Such that we have just lost more than 6000 nepalese life in making of infrastructure for quatar world cup. As country situation is same as balen's saying " Either Ram is going abroad or Abroad is eating ram" [Music...]

There has been a mixed-up during post-production that 12 Nepalese bodies were returned to Nepal on 16:38 but sadly It was never returned to our homeland. As far as we can tell, the killers threw the bodies in the desert and never returned it to the families. That just shows how angry they were with America and how cruel they were acting. Also, Thank you so much for such endearing responses. It keeps us motivated to keep pushing our content and educate on the historical, political, social and economical events/cases of Nepal.

My dad was also in Iraq at that time and when the kidnapping news was aired we couldn’t hold our tears, I still remember my mom and my grandma were unconscious and grandpa couldn’t hold his tears. I was crying my sister was crying, I’m 25 now and I still remember that black day. There wasn’t any cell phone, mobile to contact directly so we received a call from him couple of days after that he was safe and send us a recorded audio cassette that he was ok and told he missed us everyone. He was also sad that those innocent people were murdered without any reason One of the person was from our neighbouring village, That black day 😔
