8:47 the party was actually to welcome back Dhirendra, who was exiled when he commit infidelity when overseas in Britain. People say it was actually the Queen, Aishwarya, who drew the line and convinced the family to exile him. Birendra was close to Dhirendra, however, and eventually tensions died down enough for the return to happen. Dhirendra was supposed to have his titles restored that day, allegedly. Unfortunately, he died along with Birendra and the rest, after Dipendra self medicated too much. And that's also why Gyanendra wasn't there. First, his cadet branch of the family wasn't privy to that business, and second, Pokhara was quite the place to be if you didn't had royal business... Paras, Son of Gyanendra, definitely knew how to party. A bit too well, according to some critics, but hey.
Very strange, I remember hearing about how more or less the entire polish government died in a plane crash. Edit: it was in 2010 and the president, his wife, the former president, several military leaders, the leader of the polish bank, and 18 members of parliament all died in a plane crash around Smolensk
Poland also has a sad history with these plane crashes; their Charles de Gaulle, Władysław Sikorski, died in 1943 in either an accident or sabotaged transport plane off Gibraltar alongside several other Polish government-in-exile leaders
They were en route to attend a remembrance ceremony of the 1940 Katyn Forest Massacre. During which members of Poland's elite were murdered by Soviet NKVD troops. Weird coincedence. Or is it not?
Probably because sudden realisation hit that he killed a lot of people, and due to the sudden sorrow and guilt of basically committing mass murder, he tried to end his life because it was either death by suicide or face justice for his actions
Dipendra went a bit batshit after he came back from Eton. He had a self-medicating habit, which obviously was hidden from his parents. Lack of mental health awareness killed the royal family.
@@mrhacker19909 simple. He didn't kill himself, the palace guards shot the crazed and drugged up Dipendra and it was covered up as suicide. Understandable, since you really don't want to be known as the guy who killed the crown prince.

Another interesting murder story related to contemporary royals is the still unsolved 1946 death of the 20 years old Rama VIII of Thailand. He was shot in the head in his bedroom, with the last person seeing him alive being his brother the Crown Prince (the current King's father and predecessor) 20 minutes before the gunshot was heard. The gun was found in the King's hand but the angle was completely impossible for a self inflicted shot. This happened two years before the former strongman of Thailand during WW2, Field Marshall Plaek Phibunsongkhram, came back to power through a coup and appointed himself Prime Minister for the second time. Other suspects include the King's brother and successor Rama IX, the Thai left wing or even American or Soviet intelligence.
He definitely killed his brother, then played the pious monk like king and the people loved him. Our comments here on CZcams would get us jail if we lived in Thailand.
@@Pfsif The problem is there isn’t any proof. Circumstantial evidence isn’t enough to prove guilt. And if there was only a 20 minute difference, and people came running as soon as they heard the gun go off.... why didn’t they find the future King red-handed with the gun?
@Ana Come on he wouldn’t commit suicide with three shots to the back of the head, he would be Seth rich mugged where they shoot him in the back as he was leaving the mugging and not take any of his belongings.
Even if dependra killed every one, there are few things to note, 1. How could he control a gun if he isn’t able to control himself, eye witness says dipendra was unable to walk and within 5 min he came in camo dress with so much focus to kill every one. 2. Dependra could have killed everyone, let’s say this is right. 3. How could dependra shoot 2 bullet in his head, he is right handed but according to bullet he is left handed, 1 bullet in head could take person in coma forget about shooting another bullet again in head. This is a murder, to wipe out entire history of the country. With the help of Maoist, there was no way nepali communist leader could get clean sheet they were considered terrorist by king but now they are politician with special security. They even ruled a country, Think which country would be benefit with king’s murder, which countries are now controlling Nepal politics right now, which country are taking advantage of Nepal right now they all are involved. During king’s there were restrictions, other countries were having difficult time because of king.
It would be interesting to hear you cover the murder of the Swedish prime minister Olof Palme, The murder had a very sloppy police investigation and was never solved. So it has a lot of conspiracy theories around who did it and why.
You ever see the Forensic Files episode where one of the Palme suspects who had fled to America got killed because of a love triangle with an ex-policeman's wife?
It was almost certainly the CIA. Palme, if I remember correctly called the americans "NAZIs" for their war crimes in Vietnam. He also supported the vietcong.
The scary thing is that Prince Dipendra was proclaimed King after the massacre while he was in a coma. And had he survived, he could not have been charged with murder since he would have been the King. He would literally have got away with murder.

It is so depressing to lose our beloved king and more depressing when our Prince is blamed for the murder. Hey people jus tell me one thing, if he really wanted to marry a girl which his parents didn't allow.. he could simply kill The king and eventually he would have become king, after that he could marry whoever he liked. Ok even though if he really killed his family, why would he kill himself? For us they were King and Prince but to them they were Father and a son. The king who loved all the Nepalese and the Prince who was loved by all the Nepalese. No one in Nepal believe this.
How about the death of UN Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjöld in a plane crash while en route to the Congo to negotiate a cease-fire in the conflict there?
I grew up in a town in England with a lot of Gurkhas and mainly spent my time with Nepalese kids in college. When we discussed this event apparently a lot of people believe that Gyanendra was responsible for the massacre.
Nope that's just rumour... He had good luck as he was out of country during massacre.... as he was a business minded royal..... But he didn't even get to rule the country as he was forcibly dethroned by corrupted political parties... Why does one need to dethroned royals as the civil war was being held for political reforms...so you get who was behind the scene as the corrupted political power fighting for power.. as backed by Indian government... This is a shame to our country as we didn't needed to dethroned the royals...
This is all bullshit. Infact there is an evidence that Americans elite forces had come to Nepal and resided in a place called Bhaktapur in Nepal with an excuse of building a complex there. Each time they would wear a highly complicated masks that would look exactly like Prince Dipendra and those Americans would come out of the Army barrak near the locals to see their expression. Locals were always confused why Prince keep coming t Bhaktapur all teh time. But it was the Americans who were actually practicing to behave and look like the Prince. Even today people from the Palace says that during the incident there were more than 12 Dipendras shooting in 12 different places at a time, whereas the real one was drugged and killed in his sleep long before the incident even occured. Ask yourself one question - Palace is the most guarded place in Nepal with 6-7 regiments of army, military police and making it impenetrable. The murder never could occur but only by duplicating someones face. If Prince Dipendra was the killer why there were no forensics conducted ? Why no one was caught or suspected ? Why no verdicts ? Even the building where the massacred occured has been demolished. Why ?
In 1734 the royal alcazar of Madrid (basically the royal palace) burned down. Countless unic artifacts were lost, among them many master pieces (luckily? only one person died). The building was replaced with a brand new french style palace you can still see today. The mistery comes from the following. the king was STRANGELY out of the palace at the time (when, by all standards, at that time he should've been inside). He had also just moved some of his FAVOURITE drawings to another building. Furthermore he was french and allegedly hated the building. So... Its generally accepted that he may have burned down the alcazar himself. In part to differentiate his dinasty from the previous Habsburg. BTW, happy to see the classic art style ;)
Aren't Bourbon kings in Spain from 1715, or the like? I think war for Spanish succession end in that time, with the peace of Utrecht? King was Philip the V, if I remember correctly, so he didn't mind Spanish building, by 1774 it must be some other guy, probably born in Spain, so why so late? People would thought they get accustomed to "local flavours" by then.
Jus one fact: King Birendra and King Gyanendra were brothers from different mother. But google shows only what they want us to see. King Mahendra(Birendra and Gyanendra's father) had six children, four were from Queen Indra but King fell in love with Ratna (Queen Indra's sister) and Ratna gave birth to Gyanendra and Princess Shova, who are the only survival among six.
A big event in early cold war geopolitics was the 1961 death of UN Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold, a huge figure in world politics. As Secretary General he was supporting peace negotiations in the Congo when his plane crashed in Northern Rhodesia, killing those on board. This caused a crisis in the UN electing a new secretary general and hurt the peace negotiations. The Rhodesian investigation put it down to pilot error, however, other theories have been floated as there was evidence the plane had been shot down. These included: CIA saying the KGB did it, Harry Truman suggesting he was murdered, 1998 documents suggesting CIA, MI6 and Belgian mining involvement via a shady South African PMC organisation, shot down by a Belgian mercenary pilot. All in all just a Web of confusing and contradictory information. I'd be interested to know what you think.
I was in Nepal when this took place. While staying there, from what i gathered, it is not definite that the Prince was the main killer. Most Nepalese believe it's the uncle. Public was definitely hushed about talking too deep about this topic there.

Hi jabzy I'm an old fan, I'm good (not perfect, I learned by myself) at drawing and tracing pictures, if you want I can draw people and locations for you.
My ex believes the conspiracy theory that this was all undertaken by a guard on gyanderas orders to sieze power, something about the troop patterns changing for that night
I always found it strange, if not too convenient, that the entire royal family was wiped out by one of its own members who also conveniently decided to kill himself right afterwards. And then the investigation is cut short and all proofs of the incident get cleaned up. Yeah, it feels strange. Unfortunately, it also doesn't give any clear alternative. Generally, look at who benefit from the situation, and that would be the younger brother. But it really did not work so well for him. So maybe some other hidden power that stand to win from the change but pay attention that no one get to notice it? Heck, this is starting to look like a conspiracy theory. Sometimes, we just don't know.
@@edwardaugustus9680 we haven't legally we just were not happy with our local kings when India become independent it was actually divided between 252 kindoms but under sardar Patel and with overwhelming support of local people their most of property were either taken over by legally or with cough cough threats . Some are still rulers in name but their kingdoms were dissolved into many states. So kings and queens of nowhere.
Constitutional monarchies tend to be the most stable and “happy” countries as it combines the traditions of the past with the need for public representation. If Nepal is to function it needs to find a compromise. You can’t have a all powerful king but you can’t have communist gorillas attacking places. A political centre needs to evolve. You need a king willing to give away or share some power and a left that doesn’t want to burn it all down and start again
@@yj9032 you think ted Cruze is going round advocating constitutional MONARCHY. No but it’s common sense to say a nation cannot survive when the only to political positions are absolutism or burning down and staring again. It’s called being sensible.
I would also add that it gives a significant amount of legitimacy and stability to a democratic government if you can say that it’s just an extension of the centuries old monarchy Thats probably part of why only like 2 or 3 constitutional monarchies have ever been overthrown, while republics and dictatorships get overthrown all the time
10:20 Burundi and Rowanda: Since the Rowandan Genocide followed shortly thereafter and IIRC the Rowandan president who was killed was trying to prevent strife in his country it is often believed he was removed preparatory to the Genocide. The Burundian president was just a bystander. that is how I've always heard it anyway.
The Hindenburg disaster, the American media were prepared for a disaster and it completely ended air ships as a form of travel despite being almost completely incident free until that event.
Drunk and on drugs along with restricted rules of his family? Wait the bullets were found on the left side of his head and he was right handed? 😱Any witnesses?
Nepalese royal family or the Romanov family. Honestly both have similar situation Both have failing reforms & Both families were massacred But i found the romanov family (not biased) because based on my knowledge about them they were killed by the opoosition when they were already step down in power and also the last tsar was only lack of knowledge at running the country While the nepalese family was kinda bloody hell like i know that royals do kill each other for power but 18th century was a century where they don't kill each other secretly and only coup where held to gain power and honestly they were the only family that survived the monarchy through 2000s which is kinda cool unlike there neighbors
Most Nepalese people don't actually think the prince did it. He was right handed and shot himself in his left temple, the investigation only lasted 2 weeks, and nobody can properly explain why his uncle wasn't at the party
I think about this incident deeply. Please tell me why the husband of Princess Shruti (Deependra's sister) will lie? He saw Dipendra shooting his father, mother, brother, uncle, aunts and his sister.
The people of Burma, Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Maldives and srilanka. We know what its like to be in the middle of a proxy war between India, Russia, America, China and Asean. The royals were victims of this proxy war. Everyone knows this.
The Thapas ran the country in actuality or the Ranas would do it instead. After Prithivi Narayan Shah & some of his decendents, the Shah dynasty was bound to go downhill. Even after the restoration of the King & downfall of the Ranas. It is now a Republic & shall stay as such.🇳🇵
The most unfortunate day for Nepal RIP your majesties 😢 After this Sonia Gandhi made life for common Nepalese hell by fueling Nepali civil war by sheltering Maoists.
It seems crazy that for just last few years this story is surfacing in the internet for curiositys sake?? Sounds quite suspicious, come on world was quite quiet for a long lot years after the massacre trying to bring it out in open is but trying to agitate nepalese populace who never believed the massacre was a simple thing, it seems the time is just right to heat up everything eh some people are trying to scratch old nepalese wounds and do at the just the time when world is at its worst political scuffles with hegemonies fighting over Asia damn they are somehow responsible for sure
2:58 not that surprising either way. He's absolutely drugged up at the time, I don't think he'd bother which hand he'd use to cap himself. Also, an alternative theory is that the royal guard neutralized Dipendra and that was covered up, because obviously you don't want to be the guy known as the one who shot the prince.
There's something incorrect, your mention of China kind of imply they help the insurgency. But from what little I understand, the Chinese, along with the US, India etc. supported the Kingdom of Nepal against the Nepalese communist during the civil war.
They did back the insurgency though. The insurgents couldn’t have sustained their movement without outside support, It was basically a proxy war with India backing the monarchy and China the communist rebels. China won and broke Nepal away from the Indian sphere and into a more pro-Chinese regime.

I looked so much videos but I found something that changed the story like a movie ; Firstly, shame to our army service, security service because they were the one who killed the royale family with m16a2,Glock 19 pistol which is carried by security & armed force. This all plan was planned by Devyani Gwalior Royal Family & politicians . All of the rumor says that dipendra is the killer but that's untrue. Why, because devyani was from royal family of India & when married to dipendra it's like giving the all property & everything to Nepal. So, they plan to cause royal massacre. No any American or china involved in here. Everything is done by devyani royal family. That's clear because indian royal family had enough money, power to buy any armies of nepal, politicians and all shit. If you think this is joke then ask Keshav parsad upadhaya & taranath ranabat who are living wealthy life now after having commission from indian royal family. RIP TO MY BELOVED KING 🥲 WILL TAKE REVENGE SOON
Crazy theory here is that they were genetically enhanced humans put there to breed by the cia+make a massive powerbase/fortress. Seems insane but not outside of possibility. Would make dipendra a hero for humankind. 1% chance of being real tho.
Among other things Nepal didn't lose against Tibet. Nepal-Tibet wars always used to be one sided war with Nepal always dominating Tibet. But Nepal lost a war against China once. Probably you got confused with that.
Aftr tht no india got the benefit no royal family only politicians and parties hot benefited tht was communist......aftr tht riot happend in Nepal seems all public had chinese guns....so how come chinese guns appear on nepali public hands ....tht shows the chinese communist interference

It is so depressing to lose our beloved king and more depressing when our Prince is blamed for the murder. Hey people jus tell me one thing, if he really wanted to marry a girl which his parents didn't allow.. he could simply kill The king and eventually he would have become king, after that he could marry whoever he liked. Ok even though if he really killed his family, why would he kill himself? For us they were King and Prince but to them they were Father and a son. The king who loved all the Nepalese and the Prince who was loved by all the Nepalese. No one in Nepal believe this.
Just saying that if I was a communist terrorist, the story about the Prince killing his own family is what I'd want people to believe
In Nepal nobody accepts this theory.
@@Aester Now wouldn't that be great for communists in Nepal?
@@greas1233 People still love our royal family, particularly king Birendra despite the 24/7 commie propaganda.

How about the death of UN Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjöld in a plane crash while en route to the Congo to negotiate a cease-fire in the conflict there?
I grew up in a town in England with a lot of Gurkhas and mainly spent my time with Nepalese kids in college. When we discussed this event apparently a lot of people believe that Gyanendra was responsible for the massacre.
Nope that's just rumour... He had good luck as he was out of country during massacre.... as he was a business minded royal..... But he didn't even get to rule the country as he was forcibly dethroned by corrupted political parties... Why does one need to dethroned royals as the civil war was being held for political reforms...so you get who was behind the scene as the corrupted political power fighting for power.. as backed by Indian government... This is a shame to our country as we didn't needed to dethroned the royals...
This is all bullshit. Infact there is an evidence that Americans elite forces had come to Nepal and resided in a place called Bhaktapur in Nepal with an excuse of building a complex there. Each time they would wear a highly complicated masks that would look exactly like Prince Dipendra and those Americans would come out of the Army barrak near the locals to see their expression. Locals were always confused why Prince keep coming t Bhaktapur all teh time. But it was the Americans who were actually practicing to behave and look like the Prince. Even today people from the Palace says that during the incident there were more than 12 Dipendras shooting in 12 different places at a time, whereas the real one was drugged and killed in his sleep long before the incident even occured.
Ask yourself one question - Palace is the most guarded place in Nepal with 6-7 regiments of army, military police and making it impenetrable. The murder never could occur but only by duplicating someones face. If Prince Dipendra was the killer why there were no forensics conducted ? Why no one was caught or suspected ? Why no verdicts ? Even the building where the massacred occured has been demolished. Why ?
Gyanendra's name was used by maoists, which is now clarified by maoist leader Baburam

RIP Prince Dipender & The entire Royal family 👑 🙏🏿
In 1734 the royal alcazar of Madrid (basically the royal palace) burned down. Countless unic artifacts were lost, among them many master pieces (luckily? only one person died). The building was replaced with a brand new french style palace you can still see today. The mistery comes from the following. the king was STRANGELY out of the palace at the time (when, by all standards, at that time he should've been inside). He had also just moved some of his FAVOURITE drawings to another building. Furthermore he was french and allegedly hated the building. So... Its generally accepted that he may have burned down the alcazar himself. In part to differentiate his dinasty from the previous Habsburg.
BTW, happy to see the classic art style ;)
Aren't Bourbon kings in Spain from 1715, or the like? I think war for Spanish succession end in that time, with the peace of Utrecht? King was Philip the V, if I remember correctly, so he didn't mind Spanish building, by 1774 it must be some other guy, probably born in Spain, so why so late? People would thought they get accustomed to "local flavours" by then.
@@martinboskovic1009 because I'm stupid and I wrote the date wrong. It's 1734.

Jus one fact: King Birendra and King Gyanendra were brothers from different mother. But google shows only what they want us to see. King Mahendra(Birendra and Gyanendra's father) had six children, four were from Queen Indra but King fell in love with Ratna (Queen Indra's sister) and Ratna gave birth to Gyanendra and Princess Shova, who are the only survival among six.
This what happens when you watch Anand nepal too much
Ratna married Mahendra after Indra death
Wow, a time you covered I was actually alive for.
A old beggar was scolded by the King of Nepal 10 generations before and he told them 10 generations later the royal family would end
A big event in early cold war geopolitics was the 1961 death of UN Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold, a huge figure in world politics. As Secretary General he was supporting peace negotiations in the Congo when his plane crashed in Northern Rhodesia, killing those on board. This caused a crisis in the UN electing a new secretary general and hurt the peace negotiations. The Rhodesian investigation put it down to pilot error, however, other theories have been floated as there was evidence the plane had been shot down. These included: CIA saying the KGB did it, Harry Truman suggesting he was murdered, 1998 documents suggesting CIA, MI6 and Belgian mining involvement via a shady South African PMC organisation, shot down by a Belgian mercenary pilot. All in all just a Web of confusing and contradictory information. I'd be interested to know what you think.

I was in Nepal when this took place. While staying there, from what i gathered, it is not definite that the Prince was the main killer. Most Nepalese believe it's the uncle. Public was definitely hushed about talking too deep about this topic there.
How can a rich ass royal palace not have cctv back in 2000s..strange.
How about a video about the Spanish conquest of the Canary islands
We most of Nepalese do not believe that crown prince Dipendra did this massacre.
It remains as dark history.
8:47 the party was actually to welcome back Dhirendra, who was exiled when he commit infidelity when overseas in Britain. People say it was actually the Queen, Aishwarya, who drew the line and convinced the family to exile him. Birendra was close to Dhirendra, however, and eventually tensions died down enough for the return to happen.
Dhirendra was supposed to have his titles restored that day, allegedly. Unfortunately, he died along with Birendra and the rest, after Dipendra self medicated too much.
And that's also why Gyanendra wasn't there. First, his cadet branch of the family wasn't privy to that business, and second, Pokhara was quite the place to be if you didn't had royal business... Paras, Son of Gyanendra, definitely knew how to party. A bit too well, according to some critics, but hey.
Compared to this history, Game of Thrones is walking a park.
What about the death/disappearance of Cuban revolutionary Camilo Cienfuegos?

How many royal massacres do you want?
Nepal:YES
I always found it strange, if not too convenient, that the entire royal family was wiped out by one of its own members who also conveniently decided to kill himself right afterwards. And then the investigation is cut short and all proofs of the incident get cleaned up. Yeah, it feels strange. Unfortunately, it also doesn't give any clear alternative. Generally, look at who benefit from the situation, and that would be the younger brother. But it really did not work so well for him. So maybe some other hidden power that stand to win from the change but pay attention that no one get to notice it? Heck, this is starting to look like a conspiracy theory.

Is Nepal the only country to have an indefinitely suspended monarchy?
I think some of the Indian states haven't technically abolished their monarchies but it's hard to find actual in depth information on them.
@@edwardaugustus9680 we haven't legally we just were not happy with our local kings when India become independent it was actually divided between 252 kindoms but under sardar Patel and with overwhelming support of local people their most of property were either taken over by legally or with cough cough threats . Some are still rulers in name but their kingdoms were dissolved into many states. So kings and queens of nowhere.
The Nepalese monarchy isn’t suspended anymore, it was sadly officially abolished in 2008 and Nepal proclaimed a federal democratic republic
Probably unlocked his Mangekyou Sharingan.
Constitutional monarchies tend to be the most stable and “happy” countries as it combines the traditions of the past with the need for public representation. If Nepal is to function it needs to find a compromise. You can’t have a all powerful king but you can’t have communist gorillas attacking places. A political centre needs to evolve. You need a king willing to give away or share some power and a left that doesn’t want to burn it all down and start again
Ok Ted Cruz
@@yj9032 you think ted Cruze is going round advocating constitutional MONARCHY. No but it’s common sense to say a nation cannot survive when the only to political positions are absolutism or burning down and staring again. It’s called being sensible.
I would also add that it gives a significant amount of legitimacy and stability to a democratic government if you can say that it’s just an extension of the centuries old monarchy
Thats probably part of why only like 2 or 3 constitutional monarchies have ever been overthrown, while republics and dictatorships get overthrown all the time
@@daviddavis4885 But nepal was not a constitutional monarchy, it was an absloute monarchy akin to tsarist russia

10:20 Burundi and Rowanda: Since the Rowandan Genocide followed shortly thereafter and IIRC the Rowandan president who was killed was trying to prevent strife in his country it is often believed he was removed preparatory to the Genocide. The Burundian president was just a bystander. that is how I've always heard it anyway.
The Hindenburg disaster, the American media were prepared for a disaster and it completely ended air ships as a form of travel despite being almost completely incident free until that event.

PLZ 🤩
Nepalese royal family or the Romanov family.
Honestly both have similar situation
Both have failing reforms &
Both families were massacred
But i found the romanov family (not biased) because based on my knowledge about them they were killed by the opoosition when they were already step down in power and also the last tsar was only lack of knowledge at running the country
While the nepalese family was kinda bloody hell like i know that royals do kill each other for power but 18th century was a century where they don't kill each other secretly and only coup where held to gain power and honestly they were the only family that survived the monarchy through 2000s which is kinda cool unlike there neighbors

@@o-o2399 what are you talking about?
@@cyrilmarasigan7108 I said to the other person that they're living members of the Romanov family.
No palese
Most Nepalese people don't actually think the prince did it. He was right handed and shot himself in his left temple, the investigation only lasted 2 weeks, and nobody can properly explain why his uncle wasn't at the party
I am right handed and use my left hand a lot too for throwing a ball etc so that's not much of a evidence lol
I think about this incident deeply. Please tell me why the husband of Princess Shruti (Deependra's sister) will lie? He saw Dipendra shooting his father, mother, brother, uncle, aunts and his sister.

Its still mystery who killed king so your title is not suitable
The Thapas ran the country in actuality or the Ranas would do it instead. After Prithivi Narayan Shah & some of his decendents, the Shah dynasty was bound to go downhill. Even after the restoration of the King & downfall of the Ranas. It is now a Republic & shall stay as such.🇳🇵

No false information
It seems crazy that for just last few years this story is surfacing in the internet for curiositys sake?? Sounds quite suspicious, come on world was quite quiet for a long lot years after the massacre trying to bring it out in open is but trying to agitate nepalese populace who never believed the massacre was a simple thing, it seems the time is just right to heat up everything eh some people are trying to scratch old nepalese wounds and do at the just the time when world is at its worst political scuffles with hegemonies fighting over Asia damn they are somehow responsible for sure
today is the day when all this happened obviously the royal family will be remembered ant ya its still not that clear about the headline.........
he didin"nt killed his father and others
American & Indian Embassy did It... They'll pay for That Sooner than Later...
2:58 not that surprising either way. He's absolutely drugged up at the time, I don't think he'd bother which hand he'd use to cap himself.
Also, an alternative theory is that the royal guard neutralized Dipendra and that was covered up, because obviously you don't want to be the guy known as the one who shot the prince.
There's something incorrect, your mention of China kind of imply they help the insurgency. But from what little I understand, the Chinese, along with the US, India etc. supported the Kingdom of Nepal against the Nepalese communist during the civil war.
It was more just saying that the idea spread as they were surrounded by Communists in India and China. Maybe didn't clear that up.
@@JabzyJoe Ah, I see. Thank you for the clarification.
They did back the insurgency though. The insurgents couldn’t have sustained their movement without outside support, It was basically a proxy war with India backing the monarchy and China the communist rebels. China won and broke Nepal away from the Indian sphere and into a more pro-Chinese regime.
@@dystopianalphaomega609 india backed insurgency. Rebels were trained in noida, india.

I looked so much videos but I found something that changed the story like a movie ; Firstly, shame to our army service, security service because they were the one who killed the royale family with m16a2,Glock 19 pistol which is carried by security & armed force. This all plan was planned by Devyani Gwalior Royal Family & politicians . All of the rumor says that dipendra is the killer but that's untrue. Why, because devyani was from royal family of India & when married to dipendra it's like giving the all property & everything to Nepal. So, they plan to cause royal massacre. No any American or china involved in here. Everything is done by devyani royal family. That's clear because indian royal family had enough money, power to buy any armies of nepal, politicians and all shit. If you think this is joke then ask Keshav parsad upadhaya & taranath ranabat who are living wealthy life now after having commission from indian royal family. RIP TO MY BELOVED KING 🥲 WILL TAKE REVENGE SOON
No this is not proved, terrorist n politicians together killed him just to rule the country and they succeeded , making worst situation of the country
THIRD EYE OPEN I KHAN SEEIGN EVERYTHING
Crazy theory here is that they were genetically enhanced humans put there to breed by the cia+make a massive powerbase/fortress. Seems insane but not outside of possibility. Would make dipendra a hero for humankind. 1% chance of being real tho.
Among other things Nepal didn't lose against Tibet. Nepal-Tibet wars always used to be one sided war with Nepal always dominating Tibet. But Nepal lost a war against China once. Probably you got confused with that.
