Kohima, May 21: The Nagaland Government has suspended one IAS Officer Reny Wilfred as a criminal investigation into several allegations of sexual and mental harassment.
Wilfred, a 2015-batch officer of the Nagaland cadre, has been serving as the joint secretary at the Investment and Development Authority of Nagaland (IDAN) and the Finance Department.
The suspension follows a formal complaint filed by the Nagaland State Commission for Women on March 17, 2025, after receiving accounts from several women employees who accused Wilfred of demanding sexual favours in exchange for salary hikes and employment opportunities.
In response to the suspension, the bureaucrat has denied all the allegations.
The Nagaland Police said that an FIR had been registered against Wilfred and a Special Investigation Team was constituted to probe the matter.
