This document discusses journalism in Nepal and profiles three Nepali journalists. It describes Gopal Budhathoki, the editor of Sanghu Weekly, who was threatened over the phone and on Facebook for 10 days after publishing a story about corruption. It also describes Dekendra Thapa, a journalist who was abducted and murdered by Maoists in 2004, with his murderers being arrested in 2013. The document notes that 22 journalists fled the region in January 2013 after being threatened by ruling Maoist party cadres, who had injured 6 other journalists. While Nepali law provides for press freedom, the document concludes that journalists in Nepal face continuous threats and a state of impunity.
