Indian Army Seeks Administrative Termination of Major Over Alleged Affairs
The Indian Army is pursuing administrative termination of a Major accused of extramarital affairs with the wives of two fellow officers, opting against a court-martial. The Major received a show-cause notice under Army Rules 19 and 14 and challenged the proceedings at the Armed Forces Tribunal, which declined to stay them but ordered the Army to share inquiry records. The allegations originated from the Major's former wife, who also cited substance abuse and neglect. The Major alleges procedural violations and lack of examination of key witnesses.
