Home Minister Bal Krishna Khand on Monday directed the concerned authority to release Sher Jung Gurung who was arrested for asking Minister for Tourism Jeevan Ram Shrestha to wait in queue.
Home Minister Khand directed Chief District Officer Govinda Rijal to release Gurung, a security guard from Garud Security Services employed at the visa center in the Thamel-based complex, by completing the process, the Home Minister Secretariat said.
Gurung was arrested on Sunday after he asked Minister Shrestha, who had reached the Chhaya Center in Thamel for personal work, not to breach the line.
