The government has formed a high-level probe commission to investigate the incident that occurred during the Gen-Z protests on September 8 and 9.

A Cabinet meeting held on Sunday made the decision to this effect, Home Minister Om Prakash Aryal informed.

According to him, a three-member commission was formed under the headship of former judge Gauri Bahadur Karki.

Former AIG Bigyan Raj Sharma and legal expert Bisheshwor Prasad Bhandari are the members of the commission.

Home Minister Aryal said that the commission has been given three months time to submit the report.

At least 72 people died and over 100 injured in clashes with security personnel during the protests led by Gen-Z against corruption and the government’s decision to ban social media sites.
