    I would like to know this too! Or another family member.

    Depends on the employer. Depending on seriousness of the case, they might suspend the related person too. (Suspension is a "neutral act".)
  • Would suit me, suspended with pay when I'm not even being investigated.
    Boris Johnson voted against Brexit in the Commons, all to become leader of the Conservative Party. Fall for it and you deserve everything you get.

    I would go back to the employer and ask if there is a genuine reason for them requesting that you don't make contact. It could be in your own best interest or your friend's or it could be them trying to be difficult and laying down the law where they have no right to do so. You won't know until you ask. If it's just standard procedure, I wouldn't exactly tell them to stick it but I would be ignoring their 'request' if I was friends with the suspended person and wanted to make contact.
