Vikas Dubey, prime accused in the killing of 8 police personnel, was killed in an encounter today. The incident took place when the gangster was being brought back from Madhya Pradesh’s Ujjain — where he was arrested on Thursday — to Kanpur. Cops say Vikas Dubey tried to escape when UP STF’s car carrying him overturned, it was when he was injured in the encounter. The gangster was rushed to hospital where doctors declared him dead.
As one of UP’s most wanted criminal has been killed in an encounter, Vikas Dubey’s mother Sarla Dubey, on being asked by police whether she wanted to go to Kanpur, said, “she doesn’t want to go to Kanpur, adding she has no relation with Vikas Dubey” (Mera koi sambandh nahi hai uska).
