Branch Manager of Global IME Bank Commits Suicide, Allegedly Naming CEO and Senior Officials in Social Media Post

Kathmandu — A branch manager of Global IME Bank has been found dead in an apparent suicide after posting a message on social media targeting the bank’s top management.

The deceased, Pitambar Khadka, reportedly shared a Facebook post on May 18 in which he wrote “You bastard killed me” and posted photos of the bank’s Chief Executive Officer Surendra Raj Regmi along with several senior officials.

The post also included images of Deputy CEO Suman Pokharel, Assistant CEO Deep Chandra Regmi, and Chief Human Resources Officer Anamika Singh.

Shortly after the post surfaced online, Khadka was found dead at his residence in Damak.

His body has been kept at Damak Hospital for post-mortem examination. Authorities said further legal and forensic procedures will be carried out before releasing additional details.

Following the incident, the victim’s family has alleged that Khadka was driven to suicide due to sustained workplace pressure and mental stress allegedly caused by the bank’s senior management. The family has stated that it is preparing to file a formal complaint of abetment to suicide against the four officials named in the post.

Police sources said initial information has been received and that further legal action will proceed once an official complaint is registered by the family. An investigation will be launched immediately, and the named individuals may be taken into custody if required as part of the probe.
