The Govt of Uttar Pradesh has suspended Anant Dev who was Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Kanpur during an operation against gangster Vikas Dubey at Bikru village in July in which 8 policemen were killed.
The action against the SSP was initiated after a Special Investigation Team (SIT) recommended a probe against him over his alleged nexus with slain gangster Vikas Dubey and his involvement in the July 3 incident.
The Special Investigating Team was formed by the UP Govt to probe the encounter case in Bikru village in Chaubeypur area in which a group of assailants opened fire on a Police team who had arrived in the village to arrest gangster Vikas Dubey.
Dubey was arrested by the Madhya Pradesh Police on July 9 from the premises of the Mahakal Temple in Ujjain. A day later, he was shot dead by the UP Police in an encounter after he "attempted to flee" while being taken to Kanpur from Ujjain.
