Moriarty was travelling in Jhapa Friday.“A group headed by the YCL Jhapa coordinator Prasanta pelted stones at the United Nations' vehicle (66-1-0077) in Jhapa. They also chanted slogans and waved black flags,” a news report quotes Damak area police office as saying.

Envoy Moriarty who is on a visit to Bhutanese refugee camps Friday said the Bhutanese refugees, living in different camps in the eastern Nepal, would be informed about the process of their resettlement in America within a week.
He made this remark while talking to local teachers and workers of the Yuva Maitri Sangh, at Beldangi-based camp in Jhapa district Friday.
Saying that America will resettle over 60,000 Bhutanese refugees in the USA, Moriarty said, “Refugees have the option either they like to go to America or not. We can not interfere with that.”
“For their resettlement process, office will be established in Jhapa district in June and the office will start from September month,” Moriarty said.
