Dr. Abhi Subedi, a Nepalese Professor and writer. (From blurb on the original Nepali version). “…But tying us up against the pillar, the vulture in the form of the sergeant raped my daughter in front of us.” (Extract from the text) “In any other country, the children, born from a woman married from a foreign country, are legitimately supposed to be citizens by descent upon reaching the appropriate age.
