Cooperative Fraud Case: Writ against Home Minister Lamichhane in 'Herdaherai'

According to the Supreme Court, the remaining hearing of the case against Lamichhane will be held on Wednesday. Even earlier, this issue was kept under observation and fixed for Tuesday.

The trial is being conducted in the bench of Supreme Court judges Sapna Malla Pradhan and Saranga Subedi. Attorney General Dinmani Pokharel has also been made an opponent in this case.

The attorney general's office filed a writ in the Supreme Court saying that no complaints were filed against Lamichhane in the police offices of Kaski, Chitwan and Rupandehi and the case was not pending in the courts there.

The petitioner's lawyers have discussed this case related to Lamichhane. As the debate on behalf of Home Minister Lamichhane could not be completed, it has been put on hold for Wednesday. Advocate Anupam Bhattarai has filed a writ against Home Minister Lamichhane and Attorney General Pokharel.

In the writ filed on 14th of June, it is claimed that if Home Minister Lamichhane remains in office, it may have undue influence and adverse impact on the investigation process. An interim order has been requested in the name of the Prime Minister and the Council of Ministers to suspend him from his post as it is against the principles of natural justice. In the

writ, the legal validity of the letter written by the Attorney General's office has also been raised stating that no case has been filed against Lamichhane in Kaski, Rupandehi and Chitwan. In the

writ, the letter issued by the Attorney General's office has been requested to cancel the action by sending an order stating that the letter issued by the Attorney General's office may undermine the constitution, criminal law and the basis of obtaining justice for the cooperative's savers.
