Because Nepal is not known for a robust rule of law or an effective legal system. They have a particular problem with torture.

They use torture on nobodies.

Let's not kid ourselves, TikTok representative or Meta ones aren't going to be treated the same way that a random Nepalese. They get the golden jails.

The reason they don't want legal representative is because they would rather avoid liability and be able to do whatever the fuck they want in other's countries.
