They are accused of abducting man and his family and forcing them to transfer properties
An Assistant Commissioner of Police, an Inspector and four other police personnel in Chennai have been suspended on charges of abducting an entrepreneur, his fiancée and members of his family and forcing them to part with certain properties in 2019. The policemen had resorted to the illegal “settlement” while intervening in a civil dispute.
The Crime Branch CID had registered a case against the accused in June last year and subsequently conducted searches at their houses.
Chennai City Police Commissioner Shankar Jiwal on Monday issued orders suspending the then Assistant Commissioner of Thirumangalam Police Station, A. Sivakumar, Inspector Saravanan, Sub-Inspector Pandiarajan and constables Giri, Bala and Shankar.
