"We are gravely concerned at the escalating wave of violence surrounding
pro-democracy demonstrations throughout Nepal in recent days.
We are aware of numerous incidents in which disproportionate and excessive

with members of the police and Armed Police Force, with protestors attacking
them with stones and projectiles, and with serious injuries being sustained by
police officers.
