KATHMANDU -- Maoists attacked an army camp at Charikot, the headquarters of Dolkha district at 1:05 a.m. Wednesday morning. This is the first time that the Maoists have attacked an army post since the state of emergency was declared and the Royal Nepal Army ordered against the Maoists. The state run Radio Nepal reported that the fighting left several Maoists dead. But it gave no figures. It also said that there were no casualties among the army and the police. The rebels hurled socket bombs from two side of the camp and fired from one side of the camp. Army sources said the army personnel stationed in the camp retaliated and chased the attackers away. Around mid-night there were some torch rallies and sloganeering near the camp, said the source. Security forces have been put on high alert in the area after the attack. The camp is close to the district administration offices and the police offices. The Chief District Officer and other government officials have been kept under the protection of the army. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
