Former Nepal captain Sandeep Lamichhane was found guilty of rape by the Kathmandu District Court on Friday (December 29).

Judge Shishir Raj Dhakal upheld the charges against Lamichhane following a single judge bench hearing which commenced on Sunday, though the court found that the victim was not a minor at the time of the crime.

Charges were first brought against Lamichhane in September of 2022, but the leg-spinner has continued to represent Nepal while on bail pending the trial, since a lower court order mandating his detention was overturned by the Nepal Supreme Court in January.

A sentencing hearing is expected to be held early next month.
