casestatus.in Summary

The Supreme Court allowed the State of Tamil Nadu's appeal, setting aside the Tribunal's order that had quashed removal-from-service penalties. The respondents, police officers, were found to have misbehaved with two women and assaulted interveners in 1987; they failed to participate in departmental proceedings, citing pending criminal charges. The Court held the enquiry was procedurally valid despite their non-participation and reduced the punishment from removal to stoppage of four increments with cumulative effect.
