The referrals under section 102 probably have the highest profile. There were 59 such referrals in 2021. This question has been asked before, but what is the standard timeline for dealing with such complaints? Someone might be on suspension, for instance. A case that stands out for me and on which we get queries from time to time is that of George Nkencho. People ask us what the timeline is. This is the type of case that is in the public domain. How does GSOC deal with these cases? What is the standard timeline for recommendations under section 102?
