@nepalinlast24hour_: Kathmandu police have arrested Rudranath Adhikari, after he reportedly predicted that the upcoming election date, set near an eclipse, would either not occur or bring misfortune. Adhikari was taken from his home in Machhegaon on Sunday without a prior warrant, according to his family. His wife, Laxmi Adhikari, stated that police told them he would be held respectfully and released later, but evening release was not permitted. The arrest comes at a time when courts were closed, so no judicial process has yet taken place. Adhikari’s family has pledged to fight for his legal rights, while fellow astrologers have protested his detention. #nepalinlast24hours #Falgun21 #AstrologerArrested #news #election2082updatewithnepalinlast24hours
