Police arrested human right activists from Baluwatar on Monday while they were staging a sit-in outside the Prime Minister's official residence, Kathmandu to mark the Human Rights Day.

The sit-in was organised by Human Rights and Peace Society (HURPES).

The activists had reached for the sit-in with placards and banners demanding arrest of perpetrators behind the rape and murder of Nirmala Pant. They also demanded end to impunity and violence against women.
