Kathmandu. Former Deputy Prime Minister and CPN-UML Vice President Bishnu Paudel has been illegally detained in the Supreme Court. In the petition, Paudel's wife is the petitioner, claiming that Paudel was arrested without any solid evidence and basis for political revenge, and an immediate release order has been demanded.
