Seven-Year-Old Murder Case

This crime story revolves around a murder case that remained hidden for seven long years. The victim, Sakhichan Mahara, was originally from Bara and had been living in Chitwan while working to support his family. He was staying in a workers’ hut near the Nepal Gas Industry area in Khairahani when the tragic incident took place. What first appeared as a shocking local crime slowly turned into a long and painful wait for justice, as the accused disappeared after the incident.

According to the case details, police investigation later pointed toward the victim’s own friend as the suspect. The Chitwan District Court had issued an arrest warrant, but the accused remained out of police reach for years. After nearly seven years, police received secret information that led them to a village in Bara. Acting on that information, the police finally arrested the suspect. The case once again reminded people that even if a crime stays hidden for years, investigation and law can still reach the accused. For the victim’s family, the arrest became an important step toward justice after years of uncertainty and pain.
