A day after the controversy involving Superintendent of Police (Bengaluru Rural district) Bhimashankar Guled made the headlines, the officer was transferred. On Monday, he was replaced by T.P. Shivakumar, Deputy Commissioner of Police, Bengaluru Traffic West.
A software engineer had filed a complaint on Thursday with the Koramangala police accusing Guled of having an affair with his wife. The complainant submitted a video clip showing the two, causing much embarrassment to the force.
Deputy Chief Minister G. Parameshwara said that he had sought a report from the DG-IGP over the issue.
Meanwhile, Summan D. Pennekar, Superintendent of Police, Karnataka Lokayukta, has been transferred as Superintendent of Police, Kodagu district.
