User Management in Activeadmin with Cancan

Question

I am using acitve admin with cancan in my projects. Cancan works fine in project except in admin/users section.

I am not able to do operations like show, destroy on users other than current_user.

Cancan is working fine with other resources of activeadmin but whatever operations i do in admin/user are applied on current_user.

I have given permission to admin as,

if user.has_role? :admin
      can :manage, :all
end

and implemented activeadmin with existing User model.

Do you have any idea??

Thanks in advance.
