KATHMANDU, May 28: The Special Court has declared Bikal Paudel, the former executive director of Surakshya Printing Center, guilty of corruption for the second time on Monday.
A bench comprising Judge Teknarayan Kunwar and members Ram Bahadur Thapa and Ritendra Thapa found Paudel guilty of obtaining benefits by submitting false information.
