The legal counsel, Jamyang Sherub Wangdi, submitted the fourth rebuttal statement on Gyalpoizhing land case, today, on behalf of home minister, Minjur Dorji.
Jamyang Sherub Wangdi said the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC), raising issues of administrative procedural lapses and charging it under the Bhutan Penal Code is “legally unsound”. However, he said, it doesn’t mean the defendant is accepting it as procedural lapses. He said the defendant will also justify the procedure accordingly when it is necessary.
He said ACC had charged the defendant on section 294 of the Bhutan Penal Code under the “presumption” of administrative procedural lapses.
ACC will submit their rebuttal tomorrow.
