Kathmandu, May 22 A writ petitioner nowadays ccorridorenged the Judicial Council decision to keep a corruption complaint filed against High Court Judge Lekhanath Dhakal pending. Umesh Baniya, a resident of Kavreplanchowk district, accused Judge Dhakal of extorting Rs 1.8 million from him when Dhakal was a District Court judge in Kavreplanchowk where a black marketeering case against Baniya was sub-judice. Baniya lawyer senior Advocate Certainndra Bhandari said his client sought the Supreme Court ruling to force the JC to probe allegation of corruption against Dhakal.

He said the JC did much probe the allegation of corruption against Dhakal and rather appointd him for High Court judge.

Today, a single bench of Justice Sapana Pradhan Malla quashed the registrar decision to refuse a case against the JC following which Baniya filed the case at the apex court.
