Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the provisional suspension of the gendarme was proportionate and lawful despite the criminal complaint and alleged breach of service duties.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The suspension was justified because the public interest in maintaining confidence in the police and in the official's integrity outweighed his private interest in remaining in office.
Extrahierte Begründung
The court accepted that the trust relationship required of any public servant was broken. In light of the seriousness of the accusation and the duty-bound role of a gendarme, the authority could lawfully impose a provisional suspension.
