Nepal Cricket Association: Sandeep Lamichhane of Nepal is ready to play again for his country after the Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN) lifted his suspension for rape allegations. Lamichhane is set to participate in Nepal’s forthcoming home tri-series against Namibia and Scotland in the Cricket World Cup League 2.
Sandeep Lamichhane, a former captain of Nepal, was in hot trouble after being charged with raping a 17-year-old in September 2022. He played with the Jamaica Tallawahs team in the CPL when the CAN suspended him after an arrest warrant became known on September 8. On October 6, the disgraced cricketer entered the nation again and was arrested.
But once he was granted bail in the continuing investigation, the CAN lifted his suspension. Lamichhane is now available for the next home tri-series after the Patan High Court granted him bail but prohibited him from leaving the country. The 22-year-participation old’s in international tours, according to CAN general manager Britant Khanal, is uncertain at the present and can only be confirmed if the court approves his trip.
After Lamichhane was granted bail, the Attorney General’s Office petitioned the Supreme Court.
The Office of the Attorney General challenged the decision at the supreme court of the nation while the decision to grant bail to the well-known cricketer was criticised across the nation. The 22-year-old, who has played in prestigious international domestic competitions including the IPL, BBL, PSL, BPL, and CPL, is possibly the most well-known cricketer to emerge from Nepal.
The order is incorrect. Therefore, the bail order issued by the Patan High Court needs to be amended in order to uphold the decision of the Kathmandu District Court. The Supreme Court has been petitioned with the necessary legal justification and clauses. A representative for the Office of the Attorney General was described by The Tribune as saying, “Since the case is of the kind where the accused must remain in jail during prosecution, we have sought the Supreme Court for the same.”
