Mysuru: The suspension of Bengaluru City Police Commissioner B. Dayananda and four other senior officers has triggered a wave of public outrage, with social media flooded with posts condemning the State Government for allegedly making them scapegoats in the aftermath of the June 4 Chinnaswamy Stadium stampede claiming 11 lives.
Following a Cabinet meeting yesterday, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah announced the suspension of Additional Commissioner of Police (West) Vikash Kumar Vikash, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Central) H.T. Shekhar, Assistant Commissioner of Police (Cubbon Park) C. Balakrishna and Cubbon Park Police Station Inspector A.K. Girish, in addition to B. Dayananda.
