Kathmandu: Former prime minister Sher Bahadur Deuba and six former ministers have been cleared on a supposed graft charge by the RCCC, Royal Commission for Corruption Control, a powerful anti-corruption panel formed after the February 1st move by the King.

Mr. Deuba and the others had been accused of misusing funds.

However, Mr Deuba still remains in detention on a second corruption charge related to a water project.

The three month long hullabaloo has thus come to a happy end that speaks of the future working style of the RCCC and the verdicts to be made! Yestai ho Nepal ma!
