Ramesh Chand Thakuri is the 21st IGP of Nepal Police, charged and convicted of Sudan Scam. Thakuri was succeeded by Rabindra Pratap Shah in early June, 2012. [1] Former IGP Thakuri was sent to jail in early 2009 after he failed to furnish a Rs 7 million bail in a Rs 280 million Darfur, Sudan scam. A bench of a special court sent him to hail on charge leveled by Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA) for the scam in purchase of armored personnel carriers and logistics for Nepal Police peacekeepers with U.N. in the African state. [2]

After former IGP Hem Bahadur Gurung, Thakuri is the second IGP to be sentenced for severe corruption among three police chiefs, 34 other police officers have been charged.
