Rohit and Manoj were present at the Morang District court when the charge sheet (registration no 1720) was filed but Parshuram is still at large. However, the court could not record the statements of the accused due to lack of time. The initial hearing in the case will begin on Friday, according to registrar at the district court Bhisma Raj Prasai.



The court will issue arrest warrant against fugitive Parshuram after the initial hearing on the case.



Dhakal was attacked on June 5 for reporting the attack on jailbird Abhishek Giri inside the district court premises by Parshuram´s gang on June 1.
