PDF File Size: 117 KB | Download   
The visit that I am on is a visit to three regions – the Eastern region, the Mid-Western and the Far-Western regions in order to discuss UNMIN's work in the last two weeks before the Constituent Assembly election. Of course this trip was planned several days before Saturday's terrible crime at the Sarauchiya Mosque here in Biratnagar. Before leaving Kathmandu yesterday I issued a statement of strong condemnation and of condolences. And I want of course to repeat here this afternoon condolences to the families of those who have lost their lives, or who are fighting for their life, and to those who are injured, and indeed to the Muslim community of Biratnagar. I very much hope that those who perpetrated this outrage will be quickly identified and brought to justice. And not only those who directly threw the bombs into the mosque, but also anyone who ordered or in any other way was responsible for that crime.
"But as I say the purpose of my visit is to discuss with my colleagues here and others the arrangements for the Constituent Assembly election. This morning we went to Rajbiraj, where I was briefed by the CDO and the Saptari District Security Committee, and by the Saptari District Electoral Officer and his team. Here in Morang I have already met with the CDO and the Security Committee, and will be going on to meet with the District Electoral Officer and with civil society observers of the election."
