Former Minister Rayamajhi’s son being brought to Kathmandu



KATHMANDU: Former Minister and CPN-UML Secretary Top Bahadur Rayamajhi’s son Sandeep Rayamajhi, detained by the police last evening, is being brought to Kathmandu to be produced before the court.

A high-ranking police source said that he was detained from Bhairahawa while coming to Kathmandu after a program in Arghakhanchi.
