KANPUR:Yet another audio clip of slain gangster Vikas Dubey has gone viral on social media, wherein he could be heard threatening and abusing police while chatting with a police constable of Chaubeypur police station.
The gangster, in the 1.16 minutes long audio recorded 54 minutes prior to Bikru ambush, could be heard constantly hurling expletives at police and saying, “I will do something very big that will be remembered forever, even if I have to abscond or remain in jail for the whole life.”
Going by the tape, it was again proved that the information of filing of case and police raid was leaked from Chaubeypur police station, police sources said.

This was perhaps for the third time, wherein it was established that the gangster was tipped off about police action in advance.
Earlier, Daya Shankar Agnihotri, an accomplice of gangster Vikas, who was arrested on July 5 after a brief encounter in Kalyanpur area, had admitted that Vikas had received a call that a police team would be preparing to raid his house.
Daya Shankar, who was inside Vikas’s house during the encounter, worked as a servant in his house and his wife Rekha Agnihotri worked as a maid. Similarly, Shashikant, another aide of Vikas, too, had admitted of receiving a tip-off about police raid from some policemen.

Also to recall, all 68 personnel of the Chaubepur police station were transferred to the district police lines on July 7 amid doubts over their professional integrity.
The step to attach the entire staff, including sub-inspectors, head constables and constables of the police station to police lines was taken as their integrity was allegedly doubtful, a police spokesperson had stated. Earlier, Vinay Tiwari, SHO of Chaubeypur Police Station and beat in-charge KK Sharma, were suspended for fleeing from the spot during a raid to arrest the gangster in Bikru village in Chaubeypur.
Meanwhile, in other video, the gangster is seen being haled by his aides on return from jail. They could be seen seeking blessings and touching the feet of the gangster, who was in white ‘qurta-pyjama’, and raising slogans like, ‘Jail ka tala toot gaya, sher hamara choot gaya’.
Police sources informed TOI that the video was shot in 2019 when he was released from Mati jail in Kanpur Dehat district.
It was also stated that when Vikas had reached his Bikru home from jail, his aides resorted to heavy celebratory firing.
To recall, earlier in 47 seconds long old video, the gangster, armed with rifle, could be seen holding a ‘panchayat’ and threatening a group of people to mend their ways or be ready to face consequences.
In yet another viral video, wherein he was seen giving an interview to some local electronic channel in 2006, he gave credit to a senior leader, who also fought the legislative elections from Chaubeypur area, for introducing him into politics.
