CTV News has learned a Calgary police officer is facing more disciplinary action.

Disgraced police detective Travis Dunkle has been relieved of his duties for a second time.

This time, the officer has been suspended without pay.

Dunkle has been involved in a number of high-profile incidents including being charged with impaired driving after a crash in January 2009.

He was found not guilty but was taken off the street, demoted to constable, and ordered into alchohol addiction therapy.

CTV News has learned Dunkle is now accused of violating the terms of his addiction therapy.

The police department accuses the officer of failing a random urine test, one of the conditions of his continued employment.

In addition, Dunkle is alleged to have been kicked out of the addictions program.

He is not accused of a criminal offence but if found guilty could be dismissed.

Chief Rick Hanson says the allegations are being taken seriously.

"There is no new offense committed relative to the Criminal Code or anything that has occurred on the street," said Hanson.

"However, there were conditions imposed to his continued employment with the police service and one of those conditions was violated."

John Dooks with the Calgary Police Association says Dunkle will receive support as he works through the disciplinary process.

"I understand the Chief's actions and we'll be working with the officer to respond to the suspension and deal with the situation," said Dooks.

"The city and police service provide support for any officer who requests it and it is a very significant support."

Dunkle will now face a hearing at which he will be given an opportunity to defend himself.

After the hearing, recommendations will be given to the police chief who will ultimately decide the officer's fate.
