@brief.nepal: Amid growing controversy over the reported arrest of journalists and claims that a list of 28 journalists was prepared for possible arrest, Prime Minister’s Chief Advisor Kumar Ben has taken a sarcastic dig on Facebook, writing, “Who are the 28 journalists on the list? Those who aren't among the 28, are they even journalists, friends?” His remark has drawn criticism, with some questioning whether the response trivializes a serious press freedom issue and diverts public attention from concerns over journalists being questioned for their reporting.
