Former PM Deuba's Arrest Warrant Hearing Set at Supreme Court

The Supreme Court has scheduled a hearing for former Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba's petition challenging his arrest warrant. The hearing will be conducted by a joint bench of Justices Mahesh Sharma Paudel and Nityananda Pandey. Deuba's petition argues that the Special Court, not the Kathmandu District Court, has jurisdiction over the case, and that the warrant was issued without proper jurisdiction. He has expressed willingness to cooperate with the investigation and demonstrate the source of his assets, stating his arrest is unnecessary.
