A fraud case was filed on Wednesday against Anil Kumar Pokharel, the former secretary of the Public Accounts Committee of the House of Representatives, Rishikesh Pokharel. The District Public Prosecutor's Office filed a case against Anil in the District Court Morang, demanding 7 years imprisonment and a fine of up to 70 thousand rupees.
Court Information Officer Hem Bahadur Budhathoki informed that Anil's statement will be held on Thursday and the debate will begin after the statement is over on the same day.
There is an accusation that Anil took 38 lakh 80 thousand rupees repeatedly from 2071 to 2073 from Boualal Chaudhary of Agnisair Krishnaswaran Rural Municipality-5 Bakdhuwa of Saptari for removing his daughter's name in the MBBS entrance exam.
Chowdhury reached the locality and district police office with a complaint saying that Anil had taken a loan of 50 lakh rupees and was forced to sign the Kapali Tamsuk. After the complaint was not registered, he did not get help even when he appealed to the district attorney's office.
Even when Chaudhary sent a complaint by post on July 18, 2079, the police did not proceed with the investigation. Later, he approached the High Court seeking an order to be issued in the name of the police and the lawyer's office to investigate Anil in the case of fraud.
The bench of High Court Judges Rajyalakshmi Vajracharya and Suryanathprakash Adhikari had ordered on August 31 to register the complaint and conduct an investigation. After the order was confirmed on December 11, an arrest warrant was issued against Anil. Then Anil surrendered to the police on December 25.
