KATHMANDU: Raju Nath Pandey, the Chief of Kathmandu Metropolitan Police, returned to work on Thursday following a court order temporarily halting his suspension.

The High Court Patan on Wednesday issued an interim order instructing authorities not to enforce the suspension decision against Pandey.

The order was issued by a joint bench of Judges Rishi Raj Bhandari and Dilli Ratna Shrestha.

Following the court’s directive, Pandey resumed his duties by reporting to the office of the Municipal Police Force on Thursday.

The court has permitted Pandey to continue serving in his official capacity as Chief of the Municipal Police until a final verdict is reached in the ongoing legal proceedings.
