Nepal Maoists take seats in new parliament
 Nepals Maoists took their seats in a newly created interim parliament on Monday, capping a landmark peace deal that has seen them move from guerrilla fighters to lawmakers in less than a year, said witnesses. Earlier on Monday, the previous House of Representatives passed a new interim constitution and then dissolved itself, paving the way for the new body that includes 83 nominees from the former rebels, making them the second biggest party.
