Following increasing concerns from international human rights organisations, the Recommendation Committee on August 2 decided to consult with conflict victims before recommending names for new leaderships in two transitional justice bodies, reports Kathmandu Post. The Committee also decided to urge the Government to address the concerns international human rights organisations regarding the amendment of the existing transitional justice act before the appointments are made. Sharmila Karki, a member of the Committee, said “The amendment to the Act is beyond our jurisdiction; therefore, we will be urging the government to step into the matter. We are open to what the consultations parties concerned, including the victims, have to say.” The recommendation committee, led by former Chief Justice Om Prakash Mishra, was formed in March, and has only collected applications for 10 positions in the two commissions. It has failed to finalise names, as the ruling and opposition parties are yet to reach an agreement over seat-sharing.
