1.On hs reaming custody for so long suspension was natural consensus.

. So f the same is done then writ petition can be filed against the department.

Once suspension is imposed then the new posting would be suspended automatically.

You can make a representation to the top government official in this regard in the form of interest in the public welfare.

If you dont get any reply or no action taken on this, you may file a PIL before high court challenging this appointment pending criminal case agaisnt him.
