Kathmandu: On Tuesday, when Nepal was celebrating International Women's Day, an American woman, originally from Colorado, filed an official complaint with Nepal Police, alleging she was raped Monday night by the owner of a hotel in Kathmandu where she had been staying with a friend.

The woman, who was reportedly teaching in South Korea, had arrived in Nepal Feb 25 with a woman companion. The two booked a single room in the modest, three-storey Puna Hill Hotel in Chhetrapati, a narrow lane adjoining Thamel, the hub of foreign tourists in the capital.

According to the charge pressed by the woman and taken up by the American Embassy in Kathmandu, she was raped by Kamal Tharu, the owner of the hotel.

However, according to the hotel staff, it started out as consensual sex which took an ugly turn when the American insisted that Tharu use a condom and he refused.
