BEML Chief V R S Natarajan was on Monday suspended by the defence ministry in connection with the Tatra case on a Central Bureau of Investigation recommendation after former army chief General V K Singh levelled allegations that he was offered Rs 14 crore bribe to clear a deal for 600 trucks.

The move comes a few days after the defence ministry issued a show cause notice to the BEML Chief for slapping a defamation notice against Gen V K Singh without its permission.



After his suspension Natarajan said he respected the government's decision and maintained he would come out clean.

"I respect the decision of the government. I will come out clean in the case," Natarajan told the media who sought his reaction to the defence ministry's decision.
