Mahendranagar, September 7
Inspector General of Police (IGP) Sarbendra Khanal on Friday vowed to take action against the perpetrators involved in the rape and murder of Nirmala Pant last month.
The statement comes a day after Khanal met family members of Nirmala Panta and also inspected the site where her body was found.
“The criminals will be booked. An expert team is investigating the case,” said Khanal, who is in the city to take part in of ‘Reduction Violence against Women and Human Rights Protection’ campaign.
“The national campaign to be launched by Nepal Police in coordination with NHRC from today will help control crime,” the police chief said.
IG Khanal said, “We will move ahead by coordinating with all social organisations including rights activists and civil society. The Campaign will be helpful to ensure victims’ access to justice.”
