The Officer Is Accused of Abetting a Gang by Providing His Official Car to Abduct the Teen on April 5

- Divya Chandrababu

CHENNAI: The Tamil Nadu government suspended additional director general of Police (ADGP) HM Jayaram on Tuesday, a day after he was arrested in connection with his involvement in the abduction of a 16-year-old boy in Tiruvallur district. He was, however, released soon after.

The senior IPS officer is accused of abetting a gang by providing his official car to abduct the teen on April 5 with the aim to separate a couple. The suspension order was issued by home secretary Dheeraj Kumar, said a senior police officer.

The high court on Monday orally directed Tamil Nadu Police to arrest Jayaram in connection with a kidnapping case. He was detained shortly after he came out of the court building. The court was hearing an anticipatory bail plea filed by another accused, MLA M Jagan Moorthy, who apprehended arrest in the case.

The court directed another suspect in the case, MLA "Poovai" Jagan Moorthy, leader of the Puratchi Bharatham Katchi (PBK), to appear before the investigating officer to cooperate with the probe.
