<br/>Senior IPS officer A N Roy has been re-appointed today as the Maharashtra's Director General of Police. Earlier, Mr Roy was removed from the post of Director General of Police following a Bombay High Court order when senior officers he had superseded, went to court against his appointment, saying they had been unfairly sidelined. Roy was the DGP during the 26/11 terror strikes in Mumbai. Later, the 1972 batch IPS officer was removed from the post in February last year after the court deemed his appointment as DGP in February 2008 as invalid. Terming Roy's appointment as arbitrary, the court had asked Maharashtra government to appoint a new DGP within four weeks. The post was lying vacant for three months after S S Virk retired.
