According to the information received from the source, Nima Sherpa has two elder brothers who stay away from them where Nima used to stay with his parents. When the fight broke Tenzi Sherpa (Nima’s elder married brother, who stays below their main house) came to see what was happening, by the time he reached his home, he saw his father lying dead. Tenzi later filed an FIR in the police station.
June-July had been the months of massacre in block-2 area last year, Dominique Bhutia and his wife Christina Bhutia were brutally assassinated in Gidabling on 19th June and Anjana Gurung, Krishna Gurung and Manmaya Gurung in Charkhol on 10th July, similarly a young lad killed his own father in the same month. The civilians here are now trying to understand the relation between these two months and assassinations.
Later with regrets in Nima’s face, he was taken to the court who slapped him with section 302 (Punishment for murder) of Indian Penal Code.
