Departmental Inquiry and Criminal Trial are different. Double Jeopardy principle is applicable to two criminal trials for same offence.

It is a misconduct of an employee during course of employment which invites departmental enquiry and as molestation is a criminal offence also hence the same is subject to criminal trial in court of law.

It is subject to criminal trial as the principle applies for getting two time convictions for the same offence.
