The Suryadarshan Savings and Loan Cooperative has drawn attention to the fact that Krishna Prasad Jaisi, who was arrested on charges of embezzlement of funds from Dhanush Savings and Loan Cooperative, is linked to the case of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sanstha (RSS) President Ravi Lamichhane. The Pokhara-based Suryadarshan Cooperative issued a statement on Tuesday, clarifying that Jaisi is not the only person who filed a complaint against Ravi Lamichhane. 'In the Suryadarshan Cooperative case, the complainants of the first case and the complainants of the supplementary and additional cases have been registered in the names of different people. The dates of each case are also different,' the statement said, 'The complaint of Krishna Prasad Jaisi did not initiate the case of Ravi Lamichhane.' The statement urged not to publicize Jaisi's personal matter by linking it to the organization's honor and the case against Ravi Lamichhane. Jaisi, who was arrested on Sunday on charges of embezzling Rs 125.6 million from Dhanush Cooperative, was known as a victim of Surya Darshan Cooperative. Although the initial complaint against 7 people including GB Rai was filed in his name, the supplementary complaint against Lamichhane was filed in the name of Govinda Prasad Adhikari, said Kiran Shrestha, Chairman of the Surya Darshan Cooperative Board of Directors.
Shrestha was previously the coordinator of the Surya Darshan Savings Victims' Struggle Committee. The special general meeting of the cooperative held last November elected him as the chairman.
Jaisi, while serving on the loan subcommittee of Dhanush Cooperative, created an artificial account and embezzled Rs 8.2 million in the financial analysis report. On that basis, Kaski police have arrested him and initiated an investigation.
However, Surya Darshan Cooperative has objected to the attempt to divert the issue by linking the Dhanush Cooperative case with Surya Darshan.
The statement urges media personnel and social media users to pay attention to the dignity and respect of the court while reporting news while cases related to Surya Darshan are currently pending in the Supreme Court.
13 people, including Jaisi, have been made defendants in the Dhanush cooperative fraud case, while the police have stated that the search for 4 others is ongoing.
