Ahmedabad, July 8 : In connection with the recent hooch tragedy that claimed 25 lives in Gujarat, two police inspectors were suspended today, while a DySP-rank officer was shifted.
"Two police inspectors of Kagdapith police station have been suspended and the process of suspension of a DySP is on," Gujarat Minister of State for Home Amit Shah told the state Assembly.
According to police sources, suspended police inspectors were R G Patel and A A Pathan, while G L Khunti was the DySP officer being transferred.
So far, police have not arrested anyone in the spurious liquor case.
The Gujarat government has also announced that a commission headed by a retired high court judge will probe the incident and the investigations have been handed over to the city crime branch.
The tragedy also had its echo in the state Assembly where the Opposition criticised the government and shouted slogans, which saw 14 Congress MLAs being suspended for the day.
Earlier, Ahmedabad had witnessed angry protests by people in the Majoor Gam area where some people fell ill after consuming spurious liquor during a party on Sunday night.
After conducting raids in various areas of the state Capital, police recovered large quantity of raw material used in preparation of the illicit liquor, containers and bottles. (ANI)
