Former Minister Khum Bahadur Khadka filed a petition at the Supreme Court Monday demanding annulment of the Special Court verdict to release him on a bail of Rs 20 million claiming that the grounds on which he was prosecuted and asked to deposit the bail money could not be justified.
Khadka has claimed in the petition that there was no basis on which the Special Court could ask him to deposit bail money as his involvement in the alleged misappropriation related with the handing over of contract to the China Henan Company on the Bakraha River Control Project had not been proved.
Khadka has demanded that the basis on which he was asked to deposit the bail money needs to be made clear.
