Nepalese government officials are seeking answers as anger grows over the deaths of 13 Nepali guards who worked for the Canadian embassy in Kabul and were shuttled back and forth in one of the most dangerous cities in the world in an unprotected mini-bus.

The guards died June 20 when a suicide bomber attacked their vehicle, prompting some in Nepal’s government to allege that negligence by Canadian diplomats was to blame for the deaths.

Families of the dead have said they have been left high and dry by the Canadian government. They are also not getting any answers about why the guards weren’t being shuttled around in a proper vehicle….particularly considering the likelihood of attacks in Kabul and the rest of the country.
