7 January 2016, Kathmandu. In its landmark decision, the Supreme Court on Thursday ordered the government not to grant pardon to Balkrishna Dhungel, a former lawmaker of CPN-Maoist for murdering Ujjan Kumar Shrestha of Okhaldhunga district in 1998 and reiterated to implement its past verdict that sentenced Dhungel life imprisonment and confiscation of property. Responding to the writ petitions filed in 2011 by Sabitri Shrestha, a sister of victim Ujjan Kumar Shrestha, the constitutional bench of Supreme Court headed by the Chief Justice Kalyan Shrestha and Justices Sushila Karki, Baidhya Nath Upadhyay, Gopal Parajuli and Om Prakash Mishra has annulled the controversial decision of the government led by Baburam Bhattarai to recommend the President to grant pardon to Maoist leader Bal Krishna Dhungel, who was convicted by the Supreme Court for the murder of Ujjan Kumar Shrestha.
