Pawan Sangle, a Mumbai Police driver posted at Sion police station, was suspended after a viral video showed him threatening detained student protesters.
Sangle warned students they would be implicated in false narcotics cases with '50-50 grams of powder' if they returned to demonstrations.
The threat targeted supporters of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) during protests in Mumbai.
Sangle has been transferred to the police control room pending an inquiry ordered by the state government.
The video was recorded by a detained student inside a police van at Shivaji Park.
