A merchant in Kathmandu. He bought the stolen Buddhist altars and the camera and resold them to 'Sagarmatha'. In addition to having many subordinates, he is also familiar with and maintains a presence in the Kathmandu underworld. The camera brings about his involvement with Fukamachi and Habu and after he becomes aware that it once belonged to Mallory, he plans to make a lot of money from it.
He later helps Fukamachi and Habu. Contrary to his calm demeanour he has a strong and fierce side to him and was once a commander of the Gurkha soldiers for which he was awarded the Victoria Cross. He wants to dedicate the rest of his life to his native Nepal, out of regret for spending half of his life before that as a mercenary for the British. He describes Habu as his opposite because he has solely dedicated his life to his passion.
