Episode 159 - The Nepalese Royal Massacre

On 1 June 2001 a bloody massacre unfolded within the palace walls of the Nepalese royal family in Kathmandu. It left 10 members of the royal family dead - including the king, the queen and all 3 of their children. These killings sparked dangerous conspiracy theories across the globe, started a civil war and set in motion a series of events that led directly to the fall of the entire royal dynasty of Nepal. But was the right man blamed...? Was this atrocity the work of a son scorned by a love lost, or a secret military coup designed to overthrow the powerful monarchs?
