I think when one gets down to using these words, in English, I don't know the Afrikaans, but suspension, my  view, interpretation of it is that you can be suspended with or without pay, but it is usually pending some form of action, disciplinary action or some form of hearing.  If you are in a security sort of situation, how I think of being put on ice is that you are just pulled out of the operational area for a while, and it is not necessarily pending some hearing against you and you can be brought back in when the heat is off, type of thing.  So there is a bit of a difference in using the word suspended or put on ice.  I don't know - is that what that is?
