Nepal High court releases rape accused cricketer Sandeep Lamichhane on bail

Nepal's most high-profile cricketer Sandeep Lamichhane was released on bail, more than 3 months after he was arrested on rape charges.

Patan High Court decided to release the 22-year-old on bail of ₹2 million, reversing the decision of the Kathmandu district court. Lamichhane, who has played in IPL and CPL has been barred from leaving the country until the final verdict of the court is announced in the case.

On September 8, a court in Nepal issued an arrest warrant for national cricket team captain Lamichhane after a 17-year-old girl alleged that he raped her in a hotel room in Kathmandu. The cricketer was arrested on October 6.
