Let’s be very clear. All those raising questions about the encounter death of gangster #VikasDubey aren’t sympathizing with a cop killer. They’re raising questions about the extrajudicial and unconstitutional behavior of the police and the political administration in UP.
We also need to ask why Dubey suddenly killed 8 cops. In a state where the criminal-politician nexus is well known, why would a gangster go rogue knowing full well that he was signing his own death sentence?
Encounter deaths are Indispeak for extrajudicial killings where no legal process is followed. This is the worry. Because a regime that can come up daily with a cock and bull story about criminals escaping police custody which led to their deaths in police firing,
Doesn’t respect the law, the uniform or the rights of common citizens. In UP this behavior has been actively encouraged by the current regime. That’s the worry.
