Arrest warrant issued against Lamichhane

An arrest warrant has been issued against Nepal national cricket team skipper Sandeep Lamichhane. The Kathmandu District Court issued the arrest warrant to carry out further investigation. Earlier on Tuesday, a 17-year-old girl registered a rape complaint against Lamichhane at the Metropolitan Police Circle, Gaushala.

The girl in her complaint said that the Nepal’s leg spinner had raped her in various places of Kathmandu and Bhaktapur.

Lamichhane is currently in West Indies to play Caribbean League. Earlier today, the International Cricket Council had inquired the Cricket Association of Nepal about Lamichhane’s case.
