Image description

Living goddess Kumari of Nepal (C) and playmates watch polling activities near their temple in Kathmandu May 3. The Kumari is considered to be the incarnation of the goddess Taleju Bhavani and is always chosen from among young girls between two and four years old. Once selected, she lives in the Kumari Bahal temple until she reaches puberty or sheds any blood, even from a small wound. Then her term as the living goddess ends and a new Kumari is chosen. Nepali voters went to the polls on Monday amid a security clampdown after clashes between Maoist rebels and police in which eight people died at the weekend. CC/JIR/JBP
