Abstract In this article we study the rare B-meson decay via two on-shell almost-degenerate Majorana Heavy Neutrinos, into two charged leptons and two pseudoscalar mesons ( $$B^{\pm } \rightarrow D^0 \ell ^{\pm }_1 \ell ^{\pm }_2 \pi ^{\mp }$$ B ± → D 0 ℓ 1 ± ℓ 2 ± π ∓ ). We consider the scenario where the heavy neutrino masses are $$\sim 2$$ ∼ 2 GeV and the heavy-light mixing coefficients are $$|B_{\ell N}|^2 \sim 10^{-5}$$ | B ℓ N | 2 ∼ 10 - 5 , and evaluate the possibility to measure the CP-asymmetry at Belle II. We present some realistic conditions under which the asymmetry could be detected.
