Money Laundering Case of Rs 8.5 Crore Filed Against Ram Bahadur Bomjan

A money laundering case has been filed against Ram Bahadur Bomjan, widely known as “Little Buddha,” with authorities seeking a claim of approximately Rs 8.5 crore.

According to Suman Dahal, Director General of the Department of Money Laundering Investigation, the case was registered at the Sarlahi District Court on Monday. Narayan Prasad Ghimire, Information Officer at the District Government Attorney’s Office, confirmed that a formal complaint has been lodged against Bomjan, demanding accountability for Rs 8.59 crore.

Bomjan is already facing a separate child sexual abuse case, which is currently under judicial review. During an investigation related to that case, authorities recovered a substantial amount of cash from his residence in Kathmandu.

Following this discovery, the Department of Money Laundering Investigation launched a probe into potential financial misconduct, leading to the filing of the money laundering case.
