An Assistant Sub Inspector (ASI) was suspended here for allegedly posting obscene photos on a local WhatsApp group, police said today.
"We have suspended ASI Mangilal Pawar for posting obscene pictures on a WhatsApp group," a senior police official said.
Pawar had posted four obscene photos on the group last night, following which the group administrator objected to it.
He later apologised for it and claimed the pictures were posted by mistake as he had pressed 'send' button instead of 'delete'.
However, Neemuch Superintendent of Police (SP) Manoj Kumar Singh, who was one of the members of the group, took cognisance of the matter.
Taking a serious note, the SP suspended Pawar with immediate effect, the official said.
