About King Dipendra of Nepal

दीपेन्द्र वीर विक्रम शाह

Dipendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev (27 June 1971 – 4 June 2001) was a king of Nepal, who briefly reigned while in coma as King of Nepal from 1 to 4 June 2001. The official report submitted by the high level investigation committee formed by the then government concluded that, as the Crown Prince, he killed his family at a weekly royal family dinner on 1 June 2001, including his father Birendra, the then king. The report also states that Dipendra himself was mortally wounded by a self-inflicted gunshot to the side of his head. This official version is, however, questioned by many. Due to the lack of adequate explanations to such questions, many, including high level politicians have said that they doubt as to his guilt and have called for reinvestigation.
