KATHMANDU, Jan. 13: The Commission for Investigation of the Abuse of Authority (CIAA) is preparing to file cases against 10 more civil servants within the next few days for presenting fake certificates to get jobs.
As we have finished with the hearing of five civil employees and the certificates of the other five have already been proved fake by the concerned Indian universities, we are filing cases against them at the Special Court in the near future, said a CIAA source requesting anonymity.
The CIAA has found that official at Radio Nepal Rajendra Giri, Account Officer at the Office of the Comptroller General Amar Pyakurel, Assistant level employee at Fatte Child Hospital Kul Raj Sharma, Rajendra Singh of Nepal Electricity Authority and Shyam Krishna Thapa of Nepal Water Supply Corporation presented fake certificates to get jobs or promotion.
Likewise, the CIAA is also expected to file cases against Deputy Superitendents of Police (DSP) Mohammad Samaso Joha and Kedar Bahadur Karki, and police inspectors Mukund Kumar Niraula, Shiv Hari Banskota and Arjun Khadka. The CIAA source said they had submitted fake Indian academic certificates to get jobs or promotion from their respective posts.
The CIAA also informed that it has sent an investigation team with 5,000 certificates to various Indian universities. “After they return, we will send another team with thousands of other certificates,” the source disclosed.
In a bid to encourage and pressurise the CIAA and Judicial Commission for the Investigation of Property (JCIP) to bring the corrupt to book, representatives from various organisations today held a rally in front of the Commissions for an hour.
With placards that read “nationalise the property of the corrupt”, “publicise the names of those who fail to submit their property details”, “declare the corrupt as financial terrorists”, the demonstrators had also held a rally last Wednesday.
The organisers said that they would continue to protest till Wednesday and would also declare other protest programmes. Shivsena Nepal, National Committee Against Corruption, Paribartan Nepal, National Students Front and others organised the protest rally.
