KATHMANDU: Kishor Shrestha, editor-in-chief of Jana Aastha weekly, who was arrested on Saturday, has been released after several hours in custody.
The Cyber Bureau arrested Shrestha from his residence in Lalitpur on Saturday morning following a complaint filed by Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) leader Himesh Pant over a news report concerning alleged land encroachment.
Shrestha was released on Saturday evening after holding discussions with Pant, who is also an actor. He was freed after the two sides reached an agreement.
