Lamichhane’s Hearing Continues, All Eyes on Wednesday
14th May 2024
The courtroom drama surrounding cricketer Sandeep Lamichhane’s appeal against the Kathmandu District Court’s ruling in a rape case at the Patan High Court is set to reach a critical juncture this Wednesday.
Judges Sudarshan Dev Bhatta and Anju Upetri Dhakal presided over the hearing on Tuesday, laying the groundwork for what promises to be a pivotal session as the proceedings are slated to resume tomorrow.
Initially handed an 8-year prison sentence by the Kathmandu District Court for an alleged rape incident in Gaushala 26, Lamichhane’s legal battle took a new turn when he lodged an appeal with the Patan High Court.
However, the road to justice has been fraught with delays, with the case facing postponement on five separate occasions, prolonging the uncertainty surrounding the outcome.
As all eyes turn towards Wednesday’s hearing, the future course of this high-profile case hangs in the balance, with implications reaching far beyond the realm of sports.
