Over 100 Nepalese police officers have arrived in the conflict-ridden Darfur region of Sudan, to strengthen the United Nations-African Union peacekeeping mission (UNAMID). The officers are expected to stay in the region for about a year. About 40 more officers will also join the mission shortly to form a 147-strong Nepalese Formed Police Unit (FPU). http://www.ndtv.com/convergence/ndtv/story.aspx?id=NEWEN20080069576&ch=10/21/2008%204:35:00%20PM
