The Department of Revenue Investigation (राजस्व अनुसन्धान विभाग) has recently requested assistance from the Nepal Police in a gold smuggling case involving approximately one quintal (100 kilograms) of gold. The request was made five days ago, and it has been reported that the spokesperson for the Nepal Police, Deputy Inspector General Kuber Kadayat, received this information from the department and has sent Inspector Krishna Pangeni to support the investigation.
Prior to this, the department had already taken action by forming its own investigation team and seizing the smuggled gold. So far, they have arrested 16 suspects in connection with the case. Among those arrested are officials from the customs, including Santosh Chand, Janki Kumar Dhakal, and an X-ray operator named Saroj Shrestha. Additionally, individuals associated with cargo companies such as Rajan Shrestha, Krishna Shrestha, and Pushkar Raj Bhatt, along with taxi driver Ashok Rana Magar, agent Rajendra Kumar Rai, and others like Dilip Bhujel, Harkaraj Rai, Thukpin Chiring, and Ram Kumar Bhujel have also been arrested.
It is mentioned that the investigation is still ongoing, and the authorities have extended their deadline for further investigation. The department suspects that the seized gold might be linked to the Tax Office (Tax Mahashakha) of the Nepal Rastra Bank.
