Two Boston police superior officers were placed on paid leave this week following separate sexual harassment complaints, police said.

Boston police spokesman David Estrada said Capt. Timothy Murray was placed on leave Wednesday. Lt. Stephen Cawley was placed on leave Monday.

The department released no details about either incident except to say they are unrelated.

Murray, who joined the department in 1983, has held several posts throughout his career, including district captain in Mattapan’s B-3. He was recently assigned to the department’s police academy. Estrada said Cawley, who joined in 1986, was currently assigned to the evidence warehouse in Hyde Park.
