Durga Prasai, a well-known medical entrepreneur, has been sent to Dillibazar Jail along with six others following their involvement in a violent protest. The protest took place on Chaitra 15 at Tinkune and led to several arrests.
SSP Bhishwa Adhikari of the Kathmandu Police confirmed that all seven individuals were transferred to jail on Friday. The others include Kumar Tamang, Saroj Gautam, Gokarna Shahi, Dandapani Regmi, Sushil Baral, and Keshav Basnet.
On Thursday night, Kathmandu District Court Judge Dhruvaraj Karki ordered the group to be remanded in custody while they await trial. The decision follows ongoing legal procedures related to the protest, which turned chaotic and sparked national headlines.
The case is gaining attention as it involves a high-profile figure like Prasai. Observers are now watching to see what the court decides in the coming weeks.
