Nepalese military watch over the blood sacrifice of goats and buffaloes early on outside the Kumari Chen in Kathmandu for one of the last festivals of the year, known as Chaite Dashain. The Kathmandu Kumari doesn’t witness the event herself as she’s not supposed to witness sacrifices – but it’s done in her honor.
