Hearing of NC lawmaker Alam’s case deferred again

KATHMANDU, August 27: The Supreme Court has postponed the hearings of Nepali Congress  lawmaker and former leader Momahad Aftab Alam case on Friday.

Following a demand of defendants to postpone the hearing, hearings of Alam’s case were deferred.

The hearing was scheduled to be conducted by a joint bench of justices Prakash Man Singh Raun and Prakash Kumar Dhungana.

The District Court and the apex court had ordered to send Alam to in custody on charge of burning people in the Brick Industry in Rautahat. Alam had then filed an application against the order at the apex court.

Alam was arrested on October 12 last year.
