November 9: The Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) of Nepal Police has urged the depositors of Lalitpur-based Deurali Multipurpose Cooperative to lodge complaints against the cooperative on the charge of embezzling their money.      
The police have set the deadline for the victims to register their complaints by coming Friday.    
Informing that some victims have come up with complaints and their complaints have already been registered, CIB Spokesperson Superintendant of Police (SP) Nawaraj Adhikari urged depositors to lodge complaints if they did not receive back their money.    
Complaints have been registered so far claiming compensation amounting around Rs 500 million from the cooperative for allegedly embezzling their deposits.    
He shared that three persons have been arrested in connection with irregularities acting on the complaints, SP Adhikari further said.    
The depositors registered their complaints noting they did not receive the principal and interests of their savings and fixed deposits from the cooperative. The depositors claimed that they deposited the savings and fixed amount at Bhaktapur and Kathmandu service centres of the cooperative as well, CIB said.    
As the investigation is underway on the case of financial irregularities, the victims are requested to establish contact with the CIB and lodge complaints if any, SP Adhikari shared. -- RSS
