Nepalese cricketer Sandeep Lamichane has been charged with rape. The 23-year-old Lamichane has had spells in the Big Bash League with Hobart Hurricanes and the IPL with Delhi Daredevils.
Sandeep is arguably his country’s most famous ever player. The former Hobart Hurricanes spinner was due to play for English county side Lancashire as well.
Sandeep Lamichane’s lawyer has said they will appeal the guilty verdict. The Nepalese former captain was suspended in 2022 after the revelation of the accusation.
Following his release on bail, Lamichhane returned to the Nepal side in February amid protests for a Cricket World Cup League 2 tri-series against Scotland and Namibia.
Players from both nations refused to shake his hand, but Lamichhane continued to play for Nepal throughout 2023.
If found guilty Sandeep Lamichane will be facing up to 10 years in prison.
