UAPA Tribunal Extends Ban on HNLC for Five Years

UAPA Tribunal Extends Ban on HNLC for Five Years

The government has decided to keep the ban on a group called the HNLC for another five years.

This group has been doing things the government doesn't allow, like using violence.

A special court agreed with the government's decision.

The group has been considered illegal since 2000, and the ban has been renewed several times.

The government says the group is still causing trouble, like planting explosives and asking for money in a forceful way.

The court reviewed evidence and decided the ban should continue.
