New Delhi: A high-ranking officer of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) has been dismissed from service after he was found guilty of sexual harassment.
A notice for dismissal has been issued against Deputy Inspector General Khajan Singh, PTI reported quoting sources.
The final orders will be issued after the accused officer responds within 15 days, sources were quoted as saying. Khajan Singh did not respond to PTI’s query on the matter.
The officer is currently posted in Mumbai. He was issued the letter after a probe conducted by the CRPF found him ”guilty” of sexual harassment charges.
The CRPF headquarters accepted the probe report prepared by the internal committee and forwarded it to the UPSC and the Ministry of Home Affairs for taking appropriate disciplinary action.
The officer is facing at least two such charges and the notice for dismissal has been issued in one case. The other case too is in progress, sources told PTI..
