Anti-graft Royal commission unveils its working procedures


- KOL News Report

KATHMANDU, March 17 - The Royal Commission for Corruption Control (RCCC) on Wednesday said that it will detain any individuals for 30 days on charges of corruption.
?We have set the time frame by passing the working procedure to detain anyone on the charges of being involved in corruption,? The Himalayan Times quoted spokesman Prem Raj Karki as saying.

Karki further confided in that the royal commission?s further working procedures will soon be made effective.

The Royal proclamation of Feb 1 had authorised the anti-graft Royal commission to chalk out its working procedure by itself and take stern actions against those found indulged in corruption.

?Though we passed the working procedure, we haven?t fixed the time frame to decide any case,? Karki added.

The commission now can investigate any case outside Kathmandu Valley as well. (hb)

Royal Commission quizzes two more ex-ministers:

The Royal Commission for Corruption Control (RCCC) Tuesday interrogated two ministers of then Sher Bahadur Deuba government, Yuba Raj Gyawali and Jog Meher Shrestha, in connection with their alleged involvement in the arbitrary distribution of Dashain allowances to their party cadres and relatives. The RCCC released both on bail today.

Gyawali, a senior CPN (UML) leader who was local development minister in then Deuba cabinet, registered his statement at the RCCC office in the afternoon. The RCCC has accused him of recommending for distribution of Rs.1.5 million out of the total Rs.4.5 million from the Prime Minister?s Relief Fund during last Dashain festival.

?We didn?t take or give any money personally. That was a cabinet decision,? he told reporters after the interrogation adding, ?What this government is going to do it is up to it.? Gyawali was released after he deposited property worth Rs.2.7 million as bail.

Similarly, Shrestha, then physical planning minister, who is accused of arbitrarily distributing Rs.0.6 million out of the Fund, was interrogated by the commission members today. He paid Rs.1.3 million as bail for his release.

RCCC spokesman Prem Raj Karki said on the interrogation, ?They were called for interrogation after information from various sources and our investigation proved that the fund was distributed by unlawful procedure.?

Both the former ministers were summoned along with four others but did not appear at the RCCC. For the same charge, former ministers Dr Mohammad Mohsin, Purna Bahadur Khadka, Hom Nath Dahal and Badri Mandal were quizzed yesterday and were released on bail.

Another Corrupted Neapli Leader Yuba Raj Gyawali.

I speculated long time before that this will be the triumph card of G to curb the politicians out of the political picture.

Other corrupts have to submit their selvs or be freinds with Shahi or Bajracharya or Mr. Sharad Chandra Shah etc.

I wont be surprised if this committee has formed another committee just to submit names anonimously of all the people they want to eliminate. Some of the figures they interrogated is just for "Nautanki".

If the committee decides those netas and officials were corrupt, the junta janardan will support the move.

The committee has 500 names up to now, couple of thousands more to come.

King and CIAA must kick out these corrupt and criminals from Government Offices, Political parties and Any organization to establish clean, corrupt-less and crime-less democratic nation, political culture and good government.

These criminals must not able to do any political and organizational works. They must do farming so they understand what is life and realities of Nepal and Nepalese.

These criminals must be hang or punish by legal system to show Nepalese public truth of CIAA and King action.

If the King and his Govt. is not going to punish the worst criminals/corrupters first and instead squandering time in simply taking Bayans from small corrupters... then he himself willl be kicked out for sure.

We need to see those faulters in Lauda, Dhamija, etc kandas first to be punished as quickly as possible.. and FIRE that fuc*king Sharad Chandra Shah.. He stinks.. we all know that... Kawasa Gyane , what the fuc*k are you doing?????

Nepal corruption body holds trio:

The Royal Commission on corruption control in Nepal says it has taken three civil servants, including a top government employee, into custody.
The director general at the department of forestry, Jamuna Krishna Tamrakar, is one of those held.

The wide-ranging commission, which has the powers of a court, was set up by the king last month after he seized control of the country.

The king said the previous government had failed to tackle Maoist rebels.

Judge investigated

The commission said Mr Tamrakar was arrested on the basis of a deposition made by the chief accountant at the same department.

Earlier, the commission summoned six former ministers on charges of disbursing money arbitrarily from the prime minister's Relief Fund six months ago.

A spokesman for the commission said the six had been asked to report in the next 10 days.

The commission is also investigating alleged corruption involving Judge Birendra Kumar Karna of the district court of Pyuthan in mid-western Nepal.

KING MUST SERIOUSLY IMPLEMENT CAPITAL PUNISHMENT in constitution and legal system.

Smuggler, Girls traffickkers, Black Marketers, Corrupt and Criminals must be hang or shoot or killed by legal system.

So nobody will blame breaking Human Rights, breaking law or runnig Dectorship.

Bad people of Nepal must not walk, talk and live freely.
