    Five Nepali people caught thieving, a story in a country where corruption thieving, scandals, favouritism, are every event even at the top of the country's utive body? To describe a theft why use word Gurkha or Nepali? 2 G Scandal, Kalmadi corruption, Rape by the security forces, bribery scandal, housing scandals, kick backs done by indians, does that warrant all indians being painted with the same brush?

    Ok, they are Nepalis but they are not Gurkhas. The Gurkhas are trained soldiers in the British and Indian Armies who are much respected for their bravery, loyalty and professionalism around the world. Just because these thugs happen to be people of Nepali origin does not mean Gurkhas are like them. I would much appreciate if the reporters got their facts right before they print their news.

    MANY YEARS BEFORE THIS GORKHA COMMUNITY WAS VERY MUCH RESPECTED AS THEY WERE LOYAL TO THE CORE.
    HOWEVER, AFTER 80S THEY ALSO BECAME CORRUPT AND GREEDY. THIS IS THE RESULT OF THEIR GREEDINESS.
