The Himachal Pradesh government had on Tuesday decided to drop the name of Karmapa from the chargesheet in the foreign and Indian currency recovery case, on the request of the Tibetan Religious head.
The 26-year-old Karmapa was charged under section 120-B for conspiracy along with nine others, who were charged under different sections of IPC including 419 (punishment for cheating by personation), 420 (cheating) and 467 (forgery of valuable security), in the challan filed by police in a Una court of Himachal Pradesh.
The government, in exercise of its power under section 321 (withdrawal of prosecution) of CrPC, decided to delete the name of Karmapa from the chargesheet after getting the matter examined by the Home and Law departments, an official spokesman said today.
Police had recovered currencies of 26 countries, including 120,197 Chinese yuan and around Rs 5.3 million in Indian currency, from the Gyuto Tantric University and Monastery located here. PTI COR
