Jairam’s lawyer said that he was released by the police but the government has kept him in suspension.
The bench said, “He is a senior police officer. Where was the need to keep you under suspension? Such orders are shocking and demolishing,” TN said TN said that the TN government’s counsel asked the court to inform the court on Thursday to take instructions and cancel your suspension.
Jairam has approached the apex court against the direction of Madras HC on 16 June, asked the police to secure it.
On Tuesday, the apex court agreed to his petition against the order of his arrest in the kidnapping case by Madras HC.

Jairam’s petition filed through advocate Rajesh Singh Chauhan said that on 16 June, the High Court ordered his arrest on the alleged statements of two accused without “handing over any detailed reasons”.
