CPN-UML Returns Rs 38.6 Million Amidst VIP Medical Expenses Probe
The Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist–Leninist) has returned approximately Rs 38.59 million to the state treasury following an investigation by the Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA) into alleged illegal state funding for overseas medical treatments of former high-ranking officials. The refunded amount covers expenses for former president Ram Baran Yadav, former prime ministers KP Sharma Oli, and Jhala Nath Khanal, amidst a conflict between the Public Health Act of 2018, which prohibits such funding, and older directives.
