Militants attack Bhutanese car
16 March, 2009 - A Bhutanese car driven by Ugyen Dorji, a Gelephu health assistant, was yesterday night fired upon by suspected militants from Jhapa in Nepal at an area 1.8 km away from Jigmilling, the police-training centre in Gelephu. The health assistant survived the attack.
Police say Ugyen Dorji was traveling with two other persons on March 15 night when their car was attacked from both sides of the road by automatic guns.
Although no one was seriously hurt, a passenger at the back of the car suffered minor injuries from the shattered glass pieces. The impact from the bullets had destroyed the car’s rear windshield and back door.
The police found 26 numbers of AK-47 empty cartridges from the firing spots.
