Kathmandu police have arrested 26-year-old John Tamang, a driver for an unspecified inDrive service. Tamang, a resident of Kathmandu Tokha originally from Nawalparasi, faces allegations of assault and causing bodily harm to a passenger named Keshav Ghimire.
The incident reportedly occurred on March 27th. A dispute arose after Tamang took a different route than the one Ghimire requested. Ghimire then kept the motorcycle keys, stating his intent to inform the police. During an alleged attempt to retrieve the keys, Ghimire sustained injuries resulting in three broken fingers.
Ghimire subsequently filed a complaint with the police circle Singha Durbar, leading to Tamang’s arrest on Wednesday. District Police Complex Kathmandu SP and spokesperson Nawaraj Adhikari confirmed the arrest.
