Kathmandu, July 30
Police at the Tribhuvan International Airport arrested Manoj Shrestha, one of the operators of Club Deja Vu, a popular nightclub in Kathmandu.
In January this year, the International Criminal Police Organisation (Interpol) had issued a diffusion notice against him charging him of banking offence. DIG Bishwa Raj Pokharel, a spokesperson for Nepal Police, says, he was arrested with the support of Interpol’s ‘mind device’.
He had just landed at the airport from Hong Kong.
Investigators inform that he had given a cheque of Rs 20 million to Bishwa Ram Shrestha, who also had invested in the club, but it was bounced. Meanwhile, Manoj and other operators of the club are also facing a fraud charge at the Kathmandu District Court.
