Kathmandu: The Nepal Police have arrested four people, including three Chinese nationals and a Nepali citizen, with 4.6 million Nepali rupees during a raid at a software firm suspected to be involved in illegal activities in Nepal's Kaski District.

ANI reported quoting Chief SP Ramesh Thapa that a team from the District Police Office Kaski on Thursday raided the Chinese firm on suspicion of cyber-crime-related activities.

“We have arrested three Chinese and a Nepali national and 4.6 million cash from the raid location from a rented house at Damsite, Pokhara-17. The possessors couldn’t show the source of the money which we confiscated," Ramesh Thapa told ANI over the phone.

"Also, our preliminary investigation has shown that Sino nationals were here on a tourist visa and have been working here in Nepal which is prohibited as per the immigration law. Further investigation is currently underway,” Thapa added.

As per police, the firm raided was a software company and had been registered under the name of Suman Tamang, a resident of Kakani Village Council, who was also arrested along with the three Chinese nationals.

Identities of Chinese nationals are yet to be ascertained, ANI reported.

According to reports, Nepal Police also interrogated three Chinese nationals and 75 Nepali nationals working in the company.

The rest of the employees have been released by Police under the terms of being presented before the security agencies at the time of necessity, reports ANI.
