CIB Submits Lalita Niwas Land Scam Report to District Government Attorney Office

The Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) of the Nepal Police has taken a crucial step in the Lalita Niwas land procurement scandal by delivering its comprehensive report to the District Government Attorney Office in Kathmandu.

Achyutmani Neupane, Chief of the District Government Attorney Office, confirmed the official reception of the report pertaining to the Lalita Niwas land scam from the CIB.

In a significant development on Sunday night, the CIB conducted interviews with former Prime Ministers Madhav Kumar Nepal and Dr. Baburam Bhattarai, who were implicated in connection with the alleged scam. Building on this momentum, on Monday, the CIB further engaged with other prominent figures, including former Deputy Prime Minister Bijaya Kumar Gachchhadar, former minister Chandra Dev Joshi, and former Minister of State Sanjay Shah, to gather their statements.

The submission of the CIB’s report marks a significant step in unraveling the complexities of the Lalita Niwas land scandal, and the involvement of prominent political figures adds gravity to the ongoing investigation. The public and legal community are keenly observing the developments, anticipating a fair and transparent resolution to this high-profile case.
