Thane: Two senior police supervisors have been suspended and two assistant commissioners have been transferred to the control room for allegedly allowing the dance bar to operate, violating state government norms.
Bar dances are amrapali, nataraja and antique palaces.
In the order late at night, Police Commissioner Thane Jaijeet Singh suspended Senior Inspector Anil Mangle (Naupada) and Sanjay Gaikwad (Vartak Nagar).
ACPS Neeta Padvi (Naupada) and PANKAJ Shirsath (Vartak Nagar) has been transferred on the basis of preliminary investigations.
Two bars were under the jurisdiction of the Naupada police station, and one below the Vartak Nagar police station.
The action followed the surgery sting by the news channel, which showed the bar-bar deactivating the norm during a pandemic, with the full power of the waiter, bar girl bar, and liquor served to customers.
Padvi and Shirsath have been transferred to the control room and cases have been filed against the orchestra bar and the process begins to permanently suspend licenses.
