New Delhi, Apr 16: Embarrassed by allegations of wife-swapping, the Navy has dismissed another senior officer from service after he was found guilty of sending lewd messages to several women by a General Court Martial (GCM) in Mumbai.
The issue of dismissal of the officer deployed on the country's only aircraft carrier INS Virat comes soon after Defence Minister A K Antony dismissed another officer who was found guilty of having illicit relations with his superior's wife.
The name of the officer in the rank of Commander (equal to Lieutenant Colonel in Army) was recommended for dismissal by a court martial in January this year. He was later dismissed from service, Navy spokesperson Commander P V Satish said here.
He said the officer was dismissed on the charges of ‘unbecoming of an officer' as he was using multiple numbers to send lewd messages to several women both in and out of the force.
