The Supreme Court is issuing a verdict on the government's decision to parole Yograj Dhakal alias Regal.
A division bench of justices Ishwor Prasad Khatiwada, Sapana Pradhan Malla, and Kumar Chudal is issuing a verdict on a writ petition filed against the government's decision to parole Dhakal, a murder convict.
On the occasion of the Constitution Day, the Cabinet had recommended the President to parole Regal, who was serving jail term over a murder case. With the government's decision, he was released from jail.
Bharati Sherpa, the wife of Chetan Manandhar, had filed a writ petition against the government's decision to condone Regal, who had murdered Manandhar.
Earlier, on October 5, a single bench of Justice Manoj Kumar Sharma, had ordered the government to present all the original documents showing the reason why Regal was paroled.
