A 15-member study committee has been formed to investigate the incident of 13-year-old Nirmala Panta of Ultakham, Bhimdatta Municipality-2, Kanchanpur, who was raped and murdered, and to bring those involved in the crime to justice.
The study and investigation committee was formed on Wednesday under the leadership of SSP Krishna Pangeni, working in the Human Trafficking Bureau of Nepal Police.
The committee will study the reports of various study and investigation teams in the past and will also conduct field-level investigations. ‘The committee will work to bring this case to a conclusion,’ said Police Spokesperson Abi Narayan Kafle, ‘It will also study the reports of various investigation committees so far.’
The study team will also discuss and collect information from locals as needed while analyzing the studies and investigations conducted in the past, said Police Spokesperson Kafle. He said that no specific time has been set for the committee. ‘A committee has been formed with the responsibility of bringing this case to a conclusion as soon as possible,’ he said.
Nirmala, who had gone to her friend’s house for study on 10th July 2075, was found dead in a sugarcane field in Bhimdutta-18 Nimbukheda on the second day. After that, there was a long agitation for her justice. Although the police and the Nepal government have formed various committees to investigate and investigate the incident, the culprit has not been found yet.
Upon learning of the formation of the committee, Nirmala’s mother Durgadevi said that she has a faint hope that her daughter will get justice. ‘In some cases, the culprit has been found late, if the investigation is done properly, the culprit may be found in this case too,’ she said. ‘Now, we will say something only after the culprit is found, we should not have high hopes before that.’
SSP Pangeni, coordinator of the study team formed by the police, said that it is not possible to say much now. He explained that he had not received a letter regarding how and within what time frame the work would be done. ‘I can’t talk much now, I haven’t even received a letter regarding the work,’ he said, ‘We will start work soon.’
