Key Aide of Vikas Dubey Shot Dead, Dubey Still on the Run

While the search for Vikas Dubey, the history-sheeter involved in the murder of 8 Kanpur cops continues, his close aide Amar Dubey has been killed on 8th July 2020 by the UP police.

Vikas Dubey the main accused has been absconding after the Friday incident and was recently seen at a hotel in Faridabad. He was well gone before the STF team raided the hotel. The search for other criminals involved has been going on.

A Special Task Force (STF) investigating the murder of cops has been working with local police stations and had a major breakthrough when it captured Dayashankar Agnihotri. He gave three names of policemen who tipped Dubey ahead of the raid. The gang members then ambushed the police outside Dubey’s home and killed 8 of them.

He is among the 18 aids of Dubey on which a Rs 25,000 reward has been put upon by the police. This morning the right-hand man of Vikas Dubey was shot dead by the STF team. Anthe close aide Shyamu Bajpai has been arrested this morning as well following the encounter.

Meanwhile Bihar DGP had this to say to people hailing Vikas Dubey for the killing of 8 policemen and later absconding.

The search is ongoing and given how intense it is, it’s only a matter of time before the main accused is caught as well.
