Dipendra Shah
Dipendra Shah was the Crown Prince of Nepal who gained notoriety in 2001 following a tragic royal massacre at the Narayanhiti Royal Palace, which resulted in the deaths of several members of the royal family, including his father, King Birendra. While the official investigation concluded that he was the shooter, many questions around the motives and circumstances of the incident remain unanswered, leading to speculation about his uncle, Gyanendra's potential involvement in the events that allowed him to ascend to the throne.
