ThimphuDistrictCourt-ChangUgyenCaseThe former Royal Advisory Councillor, Chang Ugyen, refuted the Office of the Attorney General’s allegations against him of creating a fake land registration certificate, in his opening statement before the Thimphu District Court, this morning.

OAG has charged him of not abiding by the Land Act 1967, violating Royal Kasho of 1980 and tampering with and creating a fake Thram.

The controversial plots are of Lubding and Omkha in Lungtenphu under Thimphu.
