Vikas Dubey gets ‘caught’ while praying at MP’s Mahakal temple

Following a 5-day chase, dreaded gangster ‘surrenders’; has managed to avoid a UP police ‘encounter’ so far
Gangster Vikas Dubey, the dreaded criminal from Kanpur, who had been on the run since shooting down of 8 UP policemen in Bikru village near Kanpur on July 3, was today (July 9) arrested at Mahakal police station in Madhya Pradesh’s Ujjain this morning.
This information was confirmed to the media by the Inspector General (IG) of Police, UP Special Task Force, Amitabh Yash. This was a ‘surrender’. Yash said Dubey himself went to the police station to surrender and got arrested.
Technically, though, it was ‘catch’ by Madhya Pradesh police, with Dubey probably fearing that he would be immediately eliminated in an ‘encounter’ if UP police found him first. There remains the fear, according to some legal experts, that there could still be an ‘encounter’ killing while the handover takes place – from MP police to UP police.
Madhya Pradesh minister Narottam Mishra was quoted as saying by news agencies: “It is a big success for the police, Vikas Dubey is a cruel killer. Whole Madhya Pradesh police were on alert. He has been arrested from Ujjain Mahakal temple. We have informed Uttar Pradesh Police.”
This, the place of arrest is slightly in variance with what the police officer said (the police station adjacent and not the temple proper), but that this was made possible through intense negotiations with MP police, was clear.
It has been reported that MP Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has spoken with UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath about the arrest of Vikas Dubey from Ujjain.
The story that has been obviously constructed was that Vikas Dubey was in the Ujjain Mahakal temple, buying flowers to offer prayers. He was identified by the shopkeeper, who immediately alerted the security guards. Dubey was questioned when he came out after having done his puja.
It is said that Dubey first produced a fake ID card of a much younger man, which the security personnel did not fall for. He was prodded further when he hit out at the guards. At this the guards dragged him to the police station.
When the police use tough tactics, Dubey allegedly shouted: “Main Vikas Dubey hoon, Kanpur wala.” That was when he was packed up in a police van
According to Ashish Singh, Ujjain collector, the gangster is undergoing interrogation.
Dubey’s trying to avoid UP police was understandable. Not only had he been the main man in the shootout that killed 8 UP police personnel, his connections within UP police (who had tipped him off, so he could escape) are also now behind bars. Also two of his close aides were killed in separate encounters in UP. His closest aide, Aman Dubey, was killed yesterday.
“It is a big success for the police, Vikas Dubey is a cruel killer. The entire Madhya Pradesh police force was on alert. He has been arrested from Ujjain Mahakal temple. We have informed Uttar Pradesh Police,” said Narottam Mishra, Madhya Pradesh Minister.
Dubey has a history of over 60 criminal cases, including murder, kidnapping, extortion and rioting. On Wednesday morning Dubey was ‘seen’ trying to check into a hotel in Faridabad near Delhi.

A horrific incident also came to light two days ago from North Delhi when a 28-year-old man beat his sick wife to death over not doing household chores and refusing to cook for him.
The accused, Bajrangi Gupta, accused his wife of being lazy and disinterested in doing household chores and in a fit of anger, he killed his wife.
The incident happened when Gupta returned from work late at night and found that his wife had not cooked him anything. This angered him and he reportedly picked up a wooden stick and hit her until she collapsed on the floor.

The accused, identified as Klas Erik Harald Jonas Westberg, misbehaved with the air hostess while she was serving meals.

In another mid-air incident, a 63-year-old man from Swedish allegedly molested an air hostess of an IndiGo flight in an inebriated condition. Flight 6E-1052 was en route to Mumbai from Bangkok. The Mumbai Police have arrested the accused.
The accused, identified as Klas Erik Harald Jonas Westberg, misbehaved with the air hostess while she was serving meals. According to the reports, the man continued to misbehave with the air hostess till the time the flight landed at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport.
According to the reports, Westberg behaved unruly with the 24-year-old air hostess when she informed him that there was no seafood onboard. She then served him chicken meals and asked for his ATM card to make a payment through the POS machine.
On the pretext of swiping the card, the passenger held her hand. She said she pulled it back and asked him to enter the card PIN. When the air hostess protested, Westberg stood up from the seat and molested the Indigo staff in front of other passengers, reports state.
The air hostess then alerted the flight captain and warned the passenger of seat No. 28-E of the possible consequences of his behaviour, but to no avail. And when the flight landed, the IndiGo security staff and CISF were informed and later handed the accused to the Sahar Airport Police Station.
The air hostess then filed a police complaint against the passenger on arrival at the Mumbai airport. He was produced before the Andheri Metropolitan Magistrate Court and was released on bail of Rs 20,000.
The accused’s lawyer argued that Westberg suffers from health issues and his body shivers. He cannot hold anything without help. He tried to hold the POS payment card machine when he touched the cabin crew. He did not touch her intentionally, he stated.
Sahar Airport Police Station is investigating the matter.
