Nepal blockade: 4 killed in clashes with police

At least four demonstrators have been killed since Saturday in southern Nepal, during protests against the new constitution.

All were shot during clashes with police, in which dozens more protesters and police were also injured.

The protesters, from the Madhesi ethnic minority, say the constitution discriminates against their community.

They have been blockading the Indian border for two months, causing shortages of food and medicine.

Nepal says India is making it worse by tacitly supporting the Madhesi, who have close ethnic ties to north India.
