Former Nepali PM KP Sharma Oli Arrested For Atrocities Committed During Gen-Z Protest
Former Nepali Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli (in white) is escorted from the District Police Range in Kathmandu, Nepal, on March 28, 2026, for a provisional medical check-up following his arrest. The arrest is related to an investigation into an incident during the Gen-Z Movement in September 2025. The newly formed government under Balendra Shah decided on March 27 to implement the recommendations of an investigation commission led by former Justice Gauribahadur Karki. Police arrested Oli from his residence in Gundu, Bhaktapur, for investigation in a case involving loss of life. The arrest of Oli and former Home Minister Ramesh Lekhak follows a formal complaint filed by the Home Ministry, which led to the issuance of arrest warrants. According to police, the action is part of implementing the commission's recommendations, which suggest charging Oli, Lekhak, and then Inspector General of Police Chandra Kuber Khapung under Sections 181 and 182 of the National Penal Code for criminal negligence, with a proposed prison sentence of up to 10 years.
