Death toll from Nepal protest violence rises to 51: police

KATHMANDU: At least 51 people were killed during violent anti-corruption protests in Nepal this week, police said Friday in an updated toll, as the full scale of chaos that toppled the government emerges. Talks continue between the president, protest representatives, key potential figures who may lead an interim administration and the army – which has imposed a curfew and taken charge of the streets. At least 21 protesters were among those killed, mainly on Monday during a police crackdown on demonstrations against a government ban on social media, corruption and poor governance.
