Bhutan rejects Bhutanese refugees deported by US, sends them to Nepal

Three new refugees who were expelled from Bhutan and arrived in Nepal were arrested on Saturday.

Refugees residing in the Beldangi camp in Jhapa say this incident has raised concerns that the Bhutanese refugee issue, ongoing for over three decades, might flare up again. The three individuals arrested from the Beldangi camp had been deported from the United States.
