Following instructions from Police Commissioner Lakshmi Singh, all police personnel at the Jaganpur police outpost in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, have been placed on suspension. Sources indicate this action is in response to an attack on Yamuna Authority officials by mining mafias. Allegations suggest the local police exhibited negligence in handling the incident. This action follows an investigation into the matter. The outpost in-charge and three other officers have reportedly been suspended. Sources also suggest collusion between the local police outpost personnel and the mafias.
