A constable attached to the Cuffe Parade police station, Sunil Madhukar Khadpe, has been dismissed from service after allegedly remaining absent without official permission for a total of 1162 days across multiple spells from 2020 to 2024. The dismissal order was issued by Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone I) Dr Pravin Mundhe recently.
According to the order, Khadpe was first found absent from August 9, 2020, to May 4, 2023 — a continuous period of 998 days. Despite repeated opportunities to explain his absence, officials said he allegedly continued the pattern and, despite receiving a warning, remained away from duty for two additional spells: July 28, 2023, to November 24, 2023 (120 days) and August 7, 2024, to September 19, 2024 (44 days).
