The Manipur government has placed under suspension Goulungmuan Singshit, the commanding officer of 7 Manipur Rifles.
A late-night government order was issued on Tuesday in this regard. It says that the high authority had issued the order since the allegation against the IPS officer was in violation of rules. The officer could not leave the headquarters without permission.
Reports say that high district officials rushed to a paddy field at Iroishemba near Imphal on Tuesday on receipt of information that some construction works were going on in the paddy field.
