In a decisive move against misconduct in the police force, two circle inspectors who previously served in Tirupati have been placed under suspension. The action follows a departmental inquiry that confirmed allegations of corruption and gross negligence of duty against them. The suspended officials, Srinivasulu and Ramaiah, had earlier worked at the East and Campus police stations in Tirupati.
Background of the Suspension
Both Srinivasulu and Ramaiah were first transferred to the vacancy reserve (VR) at Anantapur after a series of allegations surfaced against them. The departmental inquiry, ordered by Tirupati Superintendent of Police L Subbarayudu, subsequently verified the charges of corruption and dereliction of duties. As a result, the two officers were placed under suspension with immediate effect.
Zero Tolerance Policy
Tirupati SP L Subbarayudu has issued a stern warning, emphasizing that zero tolerance will be displayed towards police personnel involved in acts of corruption and those who display negligence while discharging their duties. This action underscores the commitment to maintaining integrity and accountability within the police department.
The suspension serves as a reminder to all officers that misconduct will not be tolerated, and strict measures will be taken to uphold the law and public trust. The departmental inquiry process was thorough, ensuring that the allegations were confirmed before any disciplinary action was taken.
Further details about the specific allegations and the inquiry findings are expected to be released as the process continues. The police department remains focused on rooting out corruption and ensuring that all personnel adhere to the highest standards of duty and ethics.
