CPN (Maoist Center) Leader Arrested on Charges of Raping Minor

Bhuminanda Devkota, a leader associated with the CPN (Maoist Center), has been apprehended by authorities on charges of raping a 17-year-old girl residing in his house in Pepsicola, Kathmandu Metropolitan City-32.

Devkota, originally hailing from Gorkha and having served as the personal secretary to Hisila Yami during her ministerial tenure, was taken into custody following a formal complaint lodged with the police. The complaint alleges that Devkota had been sexually assaulting the teenage girl for the past year.

The authorities have initiated a thorough investigation into the case to collect evidence and uncover the circumstances surrounding the alleged incidents. The arrest has sent shockwaves through the political circles, as Devkota’s association with the CPN (Maoist Center) and his previous role as a close aide to Hisila Yami have raised eyebrows.

The victim’s identity is being kept confidential to protect her privacy, and support services have been engaged to provide necessary assistance. The legal proceedings are expected to shed light on the severity of the allegations against Devkota and bring justice to the victim.
