Tamsuk at Taklakot, smuggled through Hilsa

It has also been confirmed by the court's decision that Jitendra brought gold through Tamsuk in Purang County (Taklakot) in Tibet through Hilsa Naka in Humla. "It appears from the fact that there was an agreement between the two parties on 2076 Oct 19 (October 6, 2019) in Purang County, Tibet to transact gold," the court in Shenzhen, Kwantong Province said.

Since then, Jitendra, who is living in Kathmandu as his permanent home in Rolpa's Duikholi Rural Municipality, took a pass from the Ministry of Home Affairs to cross as a resident of the border area by showing his Simkot address in Humla. It has been confirmed that he misused access to the Vice President's Office and the Ministry of Home Affairs in gold smuggling.

When Jitendra, who has dealt with China's Shenzhen Xinwangjiao Jewelery Company about five times, brought four kilos of gold in October 2076, the price was fixed at 2.5 crores and the payment was made within one year. He also signed and signed the Tamsuk to pay 7.1 million interest in a year at the rate of 20,000 per day.

The verdict of the court in Shenzhen, Kwantong province - Jitendra Pun Magar, a resident of Rolpa District Duikholi Rural Municipality of Nepal, passport number 060----51, was asked to appear in court to defend himself, he did not appear, nor did he send a legal representative. did not adduce any evidence in his favour. The court has convicted him according to the law.'

Jitendra submitted the national identity card of a Nepali citizen, the identity card of the Vice President's personal officer, a letter from the municipality certifying his relationship as the son of the Vice President and a copy of the certificate from the Nepal Police Headquarters stating that his behavior is correct. . It is illegal for a person to bring gold in order to sell it, even if he borrowed gold from a dealer or bought it in cash. In Nepal, traders can buy and sell gold brought by Rashtra Bank and the banks designated by it in the market. Other than that, dealing in gold is punishable.

Before giving gold, the Chinese businessman said that he trusted his son because he had also met the then Vice President of Nepal, Pun. He tried to take the help of Babu Pun to get the same money.

Sharad Roka, an aide of the then Vice President Nanda Bahadur Pun, had a conversation with a Chinese businessman on WeChat .

It seems that the then vice president's secretariat was used to confuse the Chinese business. That son is a fool, he has no faith. There is no account of what he says and what he does," Sharad Roka, the vice president's aide, told the Chinese businessmen on WeChat, "but that loan must be paid." Thus, putting the dignity of Nepal's vice president at stake, Pun seems to be covering up his son's illegal business.

Also, the gold seller side went to the Chinese court saying that after the amount was not paid within the specified time, he went to Nepal many times, he even complained to the then vice president, and he did not pay even when he was given time and time again. On July 10 (July 26, 2023), after the case was filed in the Schengen Court, Jitendra was cut off for defense. But it is mentioned in the court judgment that he was not present.

Jitendra Pun Magar, a resident of Rolpa District, Duikholi Rural Municipality, Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal, passport number 060----51, was asked to appear in court to defend himself, but he did not appear, nor did he send a legal representative. did not adduce any evidence in his favour. Therefore, the court has completed the process according to the law,'' the court said.

Proving the tamsuk between the Chinese businessman and Jitendra on October 6, 2019, the court also recognized the sum of 1.4 million 32 thousand yuan (about 2.5 million Nepalese rupees according to the then exchange rate) of four kilos of gold and 7.1 million rupees as interest. According to the court's verdict, the court has also considered the agreement, photos and videos and other messages made when the defendant received the gold as evidence.

According to the verdict of the Chinese court, Jitendra is a fugitive. But in Nepal, Jitendra and his brother Dipesh were getting immunity from investigation. Although Dipesh was involved in the smuggling case of about 61 kg of gold, which was hidden in the brakes of a vehicle from Hong Kong by a Chinese gang last June, he is out of the investigation under the guise of power and strength. In that case, the police left Dipesh only after general questioning.

The commission formed under the leadership of former judge Dilliraj Acharya to investigate the gold case has also prepared to finalize the report without questioning former vice president Pun and his son Jitendra. In the case of secretly bringing 61 kg of gold in Brek Su, the Commission had made a general inquiry on Dipesh, but the Commission was not interested in the smuggling case involving Jitendra. We are in the process of writing the report. Chairman Acharya stepped aside saying that it is not possible to talk now as it is about to be finalized.

The police have started investigating the involvement of Jitendra and Dipesh, sons of the then vice president, in gold smuggling. The investigation has been carried out on offenses including forging seals and signatures.

Deputy Prime Minister and Home Minister Ravi Lamichhane has instructed Inspector General of Police Vasant Kunwar to conduct an impartial investigation and bring the culprits to justice. CIB SSP Dinesh Acharya said that the news facts related to gold smuggling have been put on 'notice' and the accused who are outside the ambit of the law will be brought under investigation in any case.

The prosecution of the previous case related to the gold case was done keeping the investigation open. That means that the investigation is ongoing," SSP Acharya said, "Even if some accused remain missing due to lack of clear evidence in the initial investigation, they will be brought under the scope of action as the evidence leads later."
