The state government has posted T.S. Anbu, Inspector General of Police (Administration) as the IGP Idol Wing CID, in a newly-created post, said a press release issued by the government on Tuesday.
The order comes three days after the Home Department issued an order asking A.G. Ponn Manickavel, Special Officer, Idol Wing CID and retired Inspector General of Police(IG) to hand over all records/ details pertaining to cases and work done by him and by the special investigation team, to the Additional Director General of Police (ADGP) of the special investigation wing.
On Monday, the Supreme Court had ruled that the tenure of the Special Officer ended on November 30 and it was now over. “We are of the view that entire record of the investigation and other records, which are in the possession of the Special Officer, has to be handed over to the Head of the Department (Idol Wing). We order accordingly,’’ said a bench comprising Justices Ashok Bhushan and M. R. Shah.
