Kathmandu, Jan 12: The report of the Office of the Attorney General for the fiscal year 2080/81 BS has been submitted to President Ramchandra Paudel today. Attorney General Ramesh Badal submitted the report to the President at a programme held today at the Office of the President, Sheetal Niwas.
On that occasion, President Paudel said that the investigation, prosecution, pleading, advocacy and defence of government cases should be more scientific, effective and factual, and if the success rate of the case can be increased, the rule of law, and especially, the criminal justice administration will be effective.
“Rather than increasing the success rate of the case, I think it is more important whether the victim gets justice or not. Therefore, the responsibility of the Attorney General is not only to punish the offender but also to ensure that the victim gets justice with compensation,” President Paudel said on the occasion.
The President also expressed his belief that the Attorney General’s Office will pay special attention to whether the Constitution of Nepal has been effectively implemented to protect the rights of victims in the context of the fundamental rights of the Constitution of Nepal. On that occasion, Attorney General Badal presented the summary of the report.
