Shekhar Golchha Final Fiscal Nepal

KATHMANDU: Industrialist and Chairman of Golchha Group, Shekhar Golchha, has been taken under control by the Central Investigation Bureau for questioning in connection with an ongoing case involving Deepak Bhatta.

Manoj KC, Chief of CIB of Nepal Police confirmed that Golchha was brought in for interrogation as part of an expanding investigation, though officials have not publicly detailed the exact nature of his alleged involvement. Authorities emphasized that the move is part of a broader evidence-gathering process and does not necessarily imply formal charges at this stage.

The case is linked to Deepak Bhatta, who has been under investigation in recent weeks over allegations related to financial irregularities, including potential violations under anti-money laundering provisions. The मामला has drawn significant attention within Nepal’s business and regulatory circles, given its possible connections to corporate networks and financial transactions.

Investigators are examining financial linkages, business dealings, and institutional relationships tied to Bhatta, with multiple individuals reportedly being questioned as part of the probe.

Expanding Scope of Investigation

The involvement of a high-profile business figure like Golchha signals that the investigation may be widening beyond its initial scope. Officials say the inquiry is focused on establishing transaction trails, verifying compliance with financial regulations, and identifying any systemic lapses.

Sources within law enforcement indicate that more individuals could be called in for questioning as the probe progresses.
