During Nepal's armed conflict, more than 13,000 people were killed and 1,300 forcibly disappeared.

Many victims have protested the flaws in the proposals; meanwhile, no comprehensive reparations have been provided for those left most vulnerable by conflict. In this interview with ICTJ's Santosh Sigdel, we discuss developments related to ICTJ's work in Nepal.
