Gangster Vikas Dubey is wanted in connection with the Kanpur ambush in which eight policemen were killed last week. He is a most wanted criminal involved in 60 heinous crimes.

Police on Wednesday shot dead an aide of gangster Vikas Dubey, arrested six other alleged accomplices and sent two of their own men behind bars. Those arrested included two suspended sub inspectors, Chaubeypur station officer Vinay Tiwari and Bikru beat in-charge K K Sharma.

Both are accused of tipping off Vikas Dubey, which allowed the alleged gangster to set an ambush for a police team which had gone to arrest him at his Bikru village near Kanpur.

The Uttar Pradesh Special Task Force (STF) also detained Dubey’s brother-in-law in Madhya Pradesh''s Shahdol district on Wednesday. On Monday, the relative’s son was detained.
