KATHMANDU: Cricketer Sandeep Lamichhane, who was arrested on rape charges, is being produced in court on Monday.
Although he was arrested four days ago, due to a public holiday, Sandeep was not taken to court for investigation.
Sources said Lamichhane will be produced at the court today as the court will open on Monday after the Dashain holiday.
Lamichhane was accused of rape while he was abroad.
He returned to Nepal almost after a month after the arrest warrant was issued against him.
Although he had said he would surrender, the police arrested him at Tribhuvan International Airport soon after his arrival.
A teenage girl has alleged Sandeep of rape.
The police will be able to detain Sandeep for a maximum of 24 days for investigation.
