Cabinet Meeting Summoned by PM Prachanda
Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’, has called for an urgent cabinet meeting scheduled for this Friday evening, according to sources from the Prime Minister’s Secretariat. The meeting, slated for 5 pm today, aims to deliberate on critical matters surrounding the ongoing investigation into the gold smuggling case.
The investigation into the gold smuggling case has taken a significant turn as the committee assigned to probe the matter uncovered various discrepancies in the Central Investigation Bureau’s (CIB) handling of the case. The errors identified have prompted discussions on disciplinary actions against AIG Kiran Bajracharya, the Chief of the Central Investigation Bureau.
Preparations are reportedly in progress to initiate disciplinary measures against AIG Kiran Bajracharya, following the recommendations of the investigation committee. The committee’s scrutiny highlighted substantial flaws in the CIB’s investigative procedures concerning the gold smuggling case.
The forthcoming Cabinet meeting is expected to center its discussions on the implementation of the investigation committee’s findings and recommendations. Sources within the Prime Minister’s Secretariat indicate that the primary focus of the meeting will be to address the lapses identified in the investigation process and to chart a course of action moving forward.
AIG Kiran Bajracharya had been summoned for questioning by the investigation committee on January 31st, marking a significant development in the ongoing probe into the gold smuggling case.
The outcome of the cabinet meeting holds considerable importance as it underscores the government’s commitment to addressing issues of accountability and ensuring transparency in matters of law enforcement and justice.
