Vikas Dubey was arrested Thursday from MP’s Ujjain where he was spotted at Mahakal temple, 6 days after 8 cops who had gone to arrest him were killed in Kanpur.
UP police claim that Dubey, wanted for the murder of 8 policemen, attempted to flee after the car he was in overturned. Police were bringing him from Ujjain to Kanpur.
Aaj Tak anchor Anjana Om Kashyap seemed to be auditioning for a dialogue writer's role. Channels not satisfied with police-criminal nexus went looking for gangster Vikas Dubey's wife.
While global corporations setting up GCCs in India continue to express confidence in availability of skilled AI engineers, the panel argued that India’s real challenge lies elsewhere.
Taylor ‘Fema’ Hiester, commander of USAF F-16 Viper Demo Team, hit out at air show organisers for continuing with the show after Wing Commander Namansh Syal lost his life in the incident.
It is a brilliant, reasonably priced, and mostly homemade aircraft with a stellar safety record; only two crashes in 24 years since its first flight. But its crash is a moment of introspection.
You missed out the PIL in SC which was filed after Dubey’s arrest and which expressed apprehension regarding his possible elimination in a staged encounter. Will be interesting to see how this goes now. One can probably bet on the police team getting hauled up a bit, ordering of a probe, and then life as usual.
There is little doubt that he was killed by the police. However, as usual, the media is missing the main issue. The destruction of the legal system is the reason why mobs and now the police take the law into the their own hands.
Imagine that he was going to be arrested and produced in court. The courts would start granting delays and eventually he would get bail. It would take 10-15 years for him to be convicted but then the high court would step in and a few more years would go by. If by some stroke of luck, he was still sentenced for his crimes, it would make its way to the highest (kangaroo) court in the land. These self appointed guardians would surely take 5-10 years just to put his case on the docket, even as they hear other cases on a 1 day notice. Even if he is convicted, they would then release him on compassionate grounds of old age. There are plenty of cases where this is the exact trajectory.
There is incompetence, tardiness and corruption at every level, including the highest. Virtually every major problem in Indian society be it crime or corruption or poverty can be traced to the failure of our judicial system.
He would have likely got a death sentence from the courts in any case. The threat was to his powerful patrons in the UP who could have got exposed. With the UP police conveniently managing to eliminate the complete gang, the political leaders who used these criminals for their own purposes can now breathe a sigh of relief.
This is really bad. There is no rule of law in killing a gangster. Same thing happened with Hyderabad rape accused. This is non-sense and white lie.
All journo’s should raise this issue. You cannot give police free hand like this as they will or definitely had become just another killer and they will feel its okay to kill people when you wear uniform. This is incorrect. Due process of justice should be followed in all cases. This is banana republic or what?
Has anyone noticed that for the past 3 days, there is not a single article in The Print that mentions Duffer-Donkey Gandhi, Mummy and any reference to the corrupt Pvt Ltd family Company.
It’s clear the majority community is against criminals and hence very little opposition to encounter. But imagine how the reaction was for sohrabuddin. Can you spot the difference in reaction
