Mamta Kafle - The Trial of Naresh Bhatt: Part 2
The last time anyone heard from Nepali nurse Mamta Kafle was July 29, 2024. On October 5, 2026, her husband, Naresh Bhatt went on trial in Prince William County, Virginia, for her murder.
In our last episode, we began to document the trial, which is scheduled to last for seven weeks. We went through opening arguments, and talked about the first time law enforcement went and visited Naresh– on August 2, after her job called the police for a wellness check. We heard the story Naresh told him, and how that story quickly began to change.
This week, we’re going to talk about the early days of the investigation into Mamta’s disappearance, and how the story of what happened to Mamta Kafle evolved from that of a woman who was taking a break into something much darker.
