Here is the news from nepalnews.com
Summons delivered to Koirala
The Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA) Friday delivered a summon to former Prime Minister and President of the Nepali Congress Girija Prasad Koirala to further probe his assets after he did not declare it with a high-level Judicial Lamsal Investigation and Probe Commission on Property that investigated the wealth of more than 31,000 politicians and officials in the last 12 years, sources said.
The CIAA delivered summons to at least 22 persons until late evening, the same source said. Their identities were not immediately known. The investigating authority is acting secretly while delivering
the summons.
In the morning, Koirala personally launched the second phase of a movement against King Gyanendra from Basantapur with leaders of four other opposition parties after returning from his hometown Biratnagar where he had gone earlier in the week to drum up support for the movement against the King.
The CIAA acted for the first time Friday on the Lamsal Commission report after the government sent a copy to the agency for follow-up action. Published reports said the CIAA has started preliminary moves to investigate 40 politicians and officials.
The Commission suggested further probes of at least 2,000 persons in its recommendation to the government. nepalnews.com br May 16
