These officers were reverted back to their previous positions pending further investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Inquiry Ordered<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The official notification stated that a <strong>formal inquiry<\/strong> has been initiated to determine who within the IG Office facilitated or approved the irregular promotions.
