The domestic inquiry is parallel and independent of the criminal proceedings. In your case since the acquittal is out of benefit of doubt, the disciplinary authority is well within its power to have passed such orders. I am afraid the high court/ administrative tribunal will be slow to interfer with such orders no work no pay in other words, suspended period. The disciplinary authority can even pass order of discharge/dismissal depending on the standard of proof in the inquiry proceedings.
