Sex symbol in Nepal boosts Maoist's public image...

"I will endure fire but not injustice," she says stoutly in her Facebook account. "I will endure thirst but not abuse. I am the daughter of Nepal, who will never falter."

It is not the kind of message one would expect from a silver screen star and sex symbol.

However, it fits Nepali actor Rekha Thapa like a glove in her current avatar - the new Maoist gal on the block.

The 20-something sensual lass from eastern Nepal, a household name for her skimpy outfits and power to generate controversies, is the new publicity weapon of the former guerrillas, hobnobbing with their top leaders to spruce up the formerly underground party's public image. More...
