Kathmandu, Dec 11: A cyber crime case has been filed against controversial medical entrepreneur Durga Prasai at the Kathmandu District Court. The District Attorney’s Office has demanded a seven-year prison term as part of the legal proceedings.
The case was filed based on a report by the Nepal Police’s Cyber Bureau, which led to Prasai’s arrest. He is currently in police custody.
