ashamed about it, she wouldn't have posted nude.

He has been charged with murder for causing her death by publishing a nude photograph of her in his paper on 9 October. Shrestha claims, now, that he is suffering political persecution in this case. Speaking from an unknown location to a radio station in Pokhara on October 25, he accused the film artists leading the campaign against him of trying to frame him, just as in Panchayat times Narayan Man Bijukchhe was framed for the death of Karna Hyoju. He said that he did not blackmail Karki and he regretted her death. In addition to the murder charge, film artists have filed a public offence case against him, and are proceeding with defamation charges for the story that accompanied Karki's photograph. Noted women's rights advocate Shanta Thapaliya is representing these cases. Shrestha is a left-leaning journalist who in Panchayat times wrote on the murders of two girls in what was known as the Namita and Sunita' scandal: he won no favour from royalist cliques accused in these murders. More recently, he publicised Maoist politburo member Krishna Sen's death in police custody. Speaking informally about the Karki case, journalists have voiced misgivings about the film artists' motives: why, ask journalists, are these film artists so upset at Karki's death when they refused to join the widespread protest against singer Praveen Gurung's death in a car accident, allegedly by Prince Paras, in August 2000? Are royalist film artists using this opportunity to punish Shrestha for his anti-royalist politics? Are they supporting a grand design' to curtail democratic liberties? Progressive and centrist women's groups have spoken out against Shrestha, although their delay in responding says much. The Nepal Press Council has condemned the editor for breaching journalistic ethics, and has demanded an apology and explanation. But, apparently dissatisfied with existing legal avenues, Chairperson Harihar Birahi has asked for a special commission to be formed on the matter. The Federation of Nepalese Journalists has similarly asked Shrestha to offer a public clarification, and has said it will take action against him and other journalists involved in this case. Yet the Federation has also come down against the film artists for attacking Jana Aastha's office, for opting for unlawful means of protest when lawful means were available, and for trying to discredit the entire media. Speaking at the Reporter's Club, the Federation's President Taranath Dahal has said that no one should support a conspiracy to use one journalist's mistake to curtail press freedom. The film artists' decision to appeal directly to the king in this case has not allayed widespread suspicions of their political motives. For their part, the film artists have dismissed accusations of their political motives, and they have expressed dissatisfaction at the police's slowness to act on this case. Former Sub-Inspector of Police Uddav Bhandari has admitted to shooting Karki's nude photograph to the BBC Nepal Service from London. Taking a high moral tone, he claimed to have paid a film industry go-between Rs 8,000 to bring Karki to his house for sex; Still, the central issue is not politics, it is journalistic ethics. Shrestha is masquerading as a political martyr when he is accused of having hounded a woman to death. As journalist Gunaraj Luitel has written, he has now sullied his earlier admirable contributions. His politics cannot exonerate the criminality of his actions now. Speaking to a radio station in Pokhara, Shrestha stated, "I will not come out to normalise an irregular process.

| www.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,4057,5396450%255E401,00.html Shrisha Karki, a former model and television actress who was beginning to find jobs on the big screen, hanged herself on October 13, four days after the newspaper printed the picture. The suicide has outraged the film community in the Himalayan kingdom, which tends to have puritanical views on nudity, and has even brought words of condemnation from the Prime Minister Lokendra Bahadur Chand. People close to the actress said she was devastated by the photograph that appeared in the Jana Ashtha, or "People's Faith," a left-leaning weekly that is widely read for its exposes of official corruption. Her fiance was scandalised by the photo and, even though she tried to explain her side of the story, severed the relationship. A woman working at the parlour told her: "You're in a well-covered dress today. Nearly 500 Nepalese film actors and producers have joined forces to demand action against the tabloid and its editor Kishor Shrestha, who has been in hiding since the suicide. The artists, who have staged a number of public protests, are also demanding the Nepali-language weekly compensate the actress's family. Prime Minister Chand on Tuesday met members of the film industry, who have called for a judicial commission to investigate the suicide. Under fire, the fugitive leftist editor has insisted that the weekly obtained the photograph of Karki legally and said he did not expect the budding celebrity to kill herself. I regret such a tragic end," Shrestha said in a statement. Karki had said before her death the photograph had been taken "without her knowledge" by a junior police officer who has since moved to London. He claims to have nude photographs of other Nepalese stars - only fuelling the film industry's push to have the tabloid stopped. Actors have said they will talk to political leaders about drafting laws against "yellow journalism".
