Ex-Crown Prince Paras Shah revealed that he left Kathmandu because of differences with his father former King Gyanendra and insecurity following the political change that abolished monarchy in the country. In the interviews with The New Paper, tabloid published from Singapore, Paras who has been living in Singapore since July last year after the monarchy was abolished in May, said, “I left Kathmandu (the capital) because it was not safe then for me. I did not get along with my father at the time.” In Tuesday’s issue of The New Paper, the ex-crown prince who has won an ill-fame in
Nepal has shown his desire to return and join the politics.
“I plan to return to my country. It needs me. Crime and violence have spiraled. There are all kinds of shortages – petrol, diesel, kerosene and gas. The people are hungry. They are lucky if they have four hours of electricity daily because of power cuts.” According to him, he would return at opportune time and lead the country, claiming the people need a better government. “But I will assume power this time through the ballot box. I will form a new party with young people – bankers, professionals, men with a vision for the country. But really, all this can only come to pass if the people want me.” For the first time, Paras has admitted to the media that he was behind the death of famous musician Praveen Gurung in the Kathmandu street. But his version of the story is bit different. According to him, Gurung’s motorbike swayed suddenly in front of him, and though he stepped on the brake, he could not stop in time. Paras claimed that he attended to the injured and took him to the hospital, but he was pronounced dead on arrival. He claimed that he visited the bereaved family the next day. “I paid his wife compensation and took care of his two sons, putting them through school,” he said. In the tabloid on Sunday, Paras had revealed the events that he said led to his cousin Crown Prince Deependra to assassin nine members of the royal family including his father King Birendra and mother Queen Aishwarya in 2001 before "committing suicide", and in Monday's issue he described what took place the night of the Shakespearean tragedy.
