NIMB Shock in Court: Nepal’s Supreme Court ordered the release of Nepal Investment Mega Bank CEO Jyoti Prakash Pandey on personal recognizance, while allowing the investigation to continue—yet the arrest has already rattled bankers over whether collateral can still be auctioned after due legal steps. Press Freedom: Communication Minister Dr. Bikram Timilsina said the government will not threaten constitutional press freedom, urging “responsible and publicly accountable” journalism. Monsoon Risk Plan: NDRRMA approved a monsoon preparedness action plan estimating 226,661 people across 51,868 households could be affected, with women and vulnerable groups flagged. Government Moves: The Cabinet appointed five members to Nepal Airlines’ board and shifted the National Investigation Department back under the Prime Minister’s Office. Diplomacy: Japan’s ambassador paid a courtesy call on Speaker Dol Prasad Aryal, highlighting Nepal–Japan cooperation. Markets & Money: NEPSE rose slightly on Friday; Nepal Rastra Bank also announced withdrawing Rs 45 billion from banking liquidity.
