KATHMANDU: Chief Justice Manoj Sharma has said that he was surprised to see news reports linking his name to a corruption controversy.
In a statement issued on Thursday, Sharma said he has no connection to the individuals or the context mentioned in the reports. “I have no direct or indirect acquaintance or contact with the individuals mentioned in the news reports and have never even met them,” he said. “I was not even holding the office of the Chief Justice during the dates mentioned in such reports.”
Calling the reports groundless, false, fabricated and aimed at misleading the public with malicious intent, Sharma appealed to the general public not to fall for such fictitious news.
