The Supreme Court of Nepal has decided to close its non-urgent court proceedings till August 31 due to spike in coronavirus cases. The court issued a press release saying it would allow urgent proceedings to go on unhindered, respecting the rule of social distancing and by adopting other precautionary measures.
The SC said it would allow urgent cases and proceedings such as registration and hearing of habeas corpus writ petition, withdrawal of cases and reconciliation process till August 31.
It has been known to all that even after the lifting of the nation-wide lockdown local authorities have been enforcing local lockdown to contain the spread of COVID-19 pandemic. That has resulted in the court’s reducing the scope of its service.
