Kathmandu, October 7
Nepal Police Chief, Inspector General Sarbendra Khanal, says he will remove all ‘termites’ of the national police organisation who have been destroying the image of the entire body.
Khanal says he cannot accept the entire organisation being blamed for the wrongdoings of some persons.
The Police Chief’s statement comes at a time when the Nepal Police is facing severe criticism from various concerns of society for its inability to find perpetrators of July 26 rape and murder of Nirmala Pant in Kanchanpur. In the meantime, some police officials have been accused of destroying evidence of the case.
“We and the entire organisation are being blamed because of some officials,” he said while addressing a sports event in Kathmandu, “But, I am committed to identifying and removing such termites. Everyone should support me in that mission.”
He urged all police personnel to express commitment in correcting the wrongs.
