news Oli says he hasn't committed contempt of court Kathmandu Post Kathmandu, Feb. 19 -- Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli said on Thursday that he has not committed contempt of court as accused by petitioners in a case. Oli on Thursday appeared before the Supreme Court, in person, to furnish his reply concerning the contempt of court petition filed against him on January 26. The petitioners-senior advocate Kumar Sharma Acharya and advocate Kanchan Krishna-had argued that Oli made disparaging remarks against 94-year-old senior advocate Krishna Prasad Bhandari, and called the ongoing hearing on the House dissolution case a "drama." In his response, the prime minister claimed that the contempt of court allegation was made against him with a malafide intention by taking some of his statements made at his party programme out of context.
