Hi there!

Let me try to help you!

 

"for" would be the correct preposition to use. This is because 'for' can be used to indicate a reason.

However, if you were suspended because of a person, you could use the particle "by" -> In this case, you would be using the passive construction, which is totally different part of the language.

 

I hope this helps!
