Former Prime Minister Mahendra Chaudhry is advocating for transparency regarding the 2000 coup, despite skepticism about the potential for truth to emerge from George Speight, who led the coup and was recently released after serving 24 years in prison. Chaudhry doubts that the full truth about the events surrounding the coup will ever come to light, echoing a similar sentiment regarding the coups of 1987 and 2006. He believes that vested interests will continue to prevent the truth from being disclosed. Ultimately, Chaudhry emphasizes that the main desire of the victims of the violence inflicted by Speight’s group is to avoid a recurrence of the political turmoil that deeply affected their nation.
