'Arrest or surrender?': Akhilesh asks Yogi govt after cops take Vikas Dubey into custody

Lucknow: After gangster Vikas Dubey, wanted in connection with the Kanur ambush in which eight police personnel were killed, was nabbed in Madhya Pradesh's Ujjain, Samajwadi Party (SP) supremo Akhilesh Yadav asked the Uttar Pradesh government on Thursday to clarify whether it was a 'surrender' or an 'arrest'.

"News is coming that the main accused in the Kanpur case is in police custody. If this is true, the government should clarify whether it was a surrender or an arrest. Besides, the CDR (call details record) should be made public so that those hand in glove with him could be exposed," he said in a tweet in Hindi.

  • ख़बर आ रही है कि ‘कानपुर-काण्ड’ का मुख्य अपराधी पुलिस की हिरासत में है. अगर ये सच है तो सरकार साफ़ करे कि ये आत्मसमर्पण है या गिरफ़्तारी. साथ ही उसके मोबाइल की CDR सार्वजनिक करे जिससे सच्ची मिलीभगत का भंडाफोड़ हो सके.

Dubey, who was on the run since the Kanpur ambush on Friday and who carried a reward of Rs 5 lakh on information leading to his arrest, was nabbed in Ujjain
on Thursday morning.Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra confirmed the development, saying the gangster was in the custody of the state police.


In an expected development, the opposition also questioned the role of the Uttar Pradesh Police in the Vikas Dubey case and the related encounters of five criminals.

Senior Congress leader Jitin Prasada tweeted after the STF detained Khushi, wife of Amar Dubey, who was shot dead in Hamirpur on Wednesday.

READ: How Vikas Dubey was arrested

Khushi's arrest has not been announced by the STF, but the local people have confirmed that Amar's relatives and his wife were 'taken away' by the police and have not returned yet.

Amar had been married to Khushi on June 29 -- just three days before the Bikru village encounter. She was widowed on Wednesday, a week after being married.

Jitin Prasada tweeted, "Khushi probably had no choice being married off to Amar and continues to suffer as a widow and facing police harassment. Get Vikas Dubey alive and expose the links and the rot in the system from top to bottom and justice prevails." (sic)

  • दुबे गैंग के सदस्य के असहाय माता-पिता को एवं 9 दिन पूर्व शादी हुई ख़ुशी दुबे जो विधवा है उसका उत्पीड़न से क्या होने वाला है? विकास दुबे को गिरफ्तार कर सिस्टम में ऊपर से नीचे तक उसके संबंधों की जांच होनी चाहिये।

He further tweeted that "The news of Prabhat Mishra's encounter while under arrest is further proof that the govt does not want anyone left alive to tell the real story."
  • प्रभाकर मिश्रा जो हिरासत में था उसकी मुठभेड़ दिखाकर एंकाउंटर करना , इस बात को दर्शाता है सरकार असली कहानी को छिपाने में लगी है ताकि बड़े चेहरे बेनकाव न हो जाये।

The reaction of the opposition leaders comes after cops gunned down five aides of wanted criminal Vikas Dubey in an encounter. Dubey was arrested from Ujjain's Mahakal temple when he was identified by a team of security guards following which the cops were alerted.

How Vikas Dubey, after evading the cops for almost a week, managed to travel to Haryana to Rajasthan to Madhya Pardesh is among the questions being raised about his arrest. (With input from agencies)
