Bhubaneswar: DGP Abhay on Monday suspended Sanatan Sahu, the former IIC of Bhandaripokhari police station in Bhadrak district, for his alleged nexus with sand mafia.
Bhadrak SP Rajesh Pandit said that the decision was taken after an audio interaction of the cop with the mafia went viral and a subsequent probe proved it to be true.
Following the allegation, the IIC was earlier transferred.
