Pahalgam Terror Attack: Protests Outside Pakistan Embassy In Kathmandu Over Nepali National's Killing
Residents in Kathmandu protested outside the Pakistan embassy over the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 tourists, including Nepali national Sudip Neupane.
Massive protests broke out outside the Pakistan embassy in Nepal's Kathmandu on Tuesday, in the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack, which claimed the lives of 26 tourists, including one Nepali national.
Dozens of youths carrying placards and posters of 27-year-old Sudip Neupane, who was killed in the attack, shouted anti-Pakistan slogans, demanding justice for the killed citizen.
In other videos, Nepal residents were also seen demanding that the terrorists involved in the Pahalgam attack be hanged until death.
On April 26, similar protests were witnessed in Kathmandu against the Pahalgam attack.
The Rastriya Prajatantra Party also organised a separate protest the same day outside the Pakistani embassy against the attack.
Soon after the Pahalgam attack victims were identified, Nepal had announced its support to India in its fight against terrorism.
Neupane from Butawal sub-metropolitan city of Western Nepal was among those killed in the attack claimed by The Resistance Front, an offshoot of the banned Pakistan-linked Lashkar-e-Taiba.

Diddy's Lawyer Reacts As Rapper Acquitted Of Sex Trafficking Charges: 'He Will Sleep Well'
Diddy's attorney, Anna Estevao, called the verdict a "huge win" for the music mogul. After music mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs was acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges following a high-profile federal trial in New York City, his attorney has spoken out about the verdict, reported E! News. Combs was found guilty of prostitution-related offences but acquitted of his sex trafficking and racketeering charges on July 2. His attorney, Anna Estevao, called the verdict a 'huge win" for the music mogul even as he was denied bail, according to E! News. 'He was acquitted of sex trafficking, acquitted of RICO conspiracy," she said outside a Manhattan courtroom, adding, 'He will be able to sleep well at night knowing that," as per the outlet. Combs' verdict comes after two months of courtroom testimonies from witnesses from his past, including the 55-year-old ex, Cassie Ventura, according to E! News. The split verdict was announced on Wednesday. Combs has been convicted on 'two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution and could face up to 20 years in prison if he is sentenced to consecutive maximum prison terms." If he had been found guilty of sex trafficking or racketeering, he could have spent the rest of his life behind bars. Combs' legal team said the government failed to prove the major charges. The trial, which began in May, lasted several weeks and included testimony from 34 witnesses. One of them was Casandra 'Cassie" Ventura, Combs' former partner of 11 years. She testified while nearly nine months pregnant and spoke in detail about alleged abuse and 'Freak Offs" — which prosecutors described as forced sex events involving male sex workers. Kid Cudi also offered his testimony in Diddy's trial, accusing the Grammy winner of breaking into his home and blowing up his car with a Molotov cocktail in retribution for his brief romance with Ventura in 2012. Meanwhile, though Combs has been acquitted on the most serious counts, the music mogul's legal troubles are far from over, as he still faces several dozen lawsuits accusing him of sexual misconduct.

Australia just banned Kanye West over his song Heil Hitler: ‘Importing hate is not sustainable'; netizens applaud
In one of the more bizarre headlines of the week, Kanye West, 48, now legally known as Ye, has been banned from entering Australia following a series of anti-Semitic acts, including the release of his controversial track Heil Hitler. The song, which was independently released in May, has since been removed from major platforms including Apple Music, Spotify, and YouTube, and has triggered widespread backlash for its references to Adolf Hitler and overt anti-Semitic undertones. Kanye West with wife Bianca Censori Now, the Australian government has taken a decisive step. Tony Burke, the country's home affairs minister, confirmed in a televised interview with ABC's Afternoon Briefing that West's visa had been revoked under special provisions typically used to bar individuals intending to conduct public speaking tours. 'Most of the visas that have been cancelled under this section have been where someone was seeking to make a public speech,' Burke explained. 'The only one I can think of where it wasn't for public advocacy – the visa – but we cancelled it anyway, would be Kanye West.' The minister further stated that West had previously been visiting Australia regularly, noting that his wife, Bianca Censori, is from Melbourne and that he still has family ties in the country. However, the situation changed after the release of Heil Hitler. 'He's made a lot of offensive comments that my officials looked at again once he released the Heil Hitler song, and he no longer has a valid visa in Australia,' said Burke. The decision comes in the wake of another visa cancellation, that of an Israeli-American tech advocate who had publicly stated that 'Islamophobia is rational.' When asked if such bans are sustainable especially in light of global tours by controversial figures, Burke was clear: 'I think that what's not sustainable is to import hatred.' Netizens react Longtime fans of the artist and critics alike had a lot to say. 'He actually dropped a song called that omg?😭😭😭,' asked one netizen on X. Another claimed, 'Australia is the only Western country I've seen stand on business about letting bigotry into their country!' One more comment said, 'Notice how no one even knew he released a song called that because no one is checking for Kanye in the big 2025.' Another read, 'Australia ate that, they need to do this in EVERY country!' Ye has faced mounting criticism in recent years for making inflammatory, antisemitic remarks, including publicly praising Hitler and denying the Holocaust — remarks that led to widespread condemnation and the loss of several brand partnerships. Whether the rapper will address the ban publicly remains to be seen. But for now, Australia has made its position clear: hate has no visa.
