East Champaran superintendent of police suspended four policemen and served show-cause notices to five, including a sub-divisional police officer (SDPO), police said on Sunday.
“While sub-inspector Pramod Kumar Rai, a driver and a chowkidar have been suspended for their alleged involvement with a smuggler, a policewoman was suspended for training a rifle at munshi of a police station on July 22. Besides, an SHO has been sent to the police line and departmental proceedings would be initiated against him for allegedly letting a civilian work at the police station,” said Navin Chand Jha, superintendent of police, East Champaran.
The development came days after two videos about different incidents went viral on social media.
