Suppression took a twofold approach of military supression and enactment of laws. The british sent troops to major areas of the revolt and prominent regions of unrest and fought with the rebels till they were defeated.  They sent troops through 2 routes:-

One was through Delhi

Other through Agra-Calcutta

The laws they enacted made it easy for the British to prosecute. These include the likes of instant death for all the rebels.
