The Allahabad High Court on Monday asked the Uttar Pradesh Government for details of the efforts being made to nab an absconding convict who was active on social media.

A plea has been filed in SC seeking issuance of specific directions in custodial killing/ encounter of accused Rakesh Pandey yesterday and for the registration of FIR under Sections 302, 201, 120-B, 193 of the Indian Penal Code against the police officials involved in custodial killing/alleged encounter.

The Uttar Pradesh Police’s Special Task Force (STF) has made clear its special task. Encounter killings. This has been happening for a while, though it has gained notoriety and profile in the recent past, with the killing of another gangster, Vikas Dubey.

Another aide of slain gangster Vikas Dubey was arrested yesterday in a joint effort of the Uttar Pradesh Police Special Task Force (STF) and Kanpur Nagar Police, according to reports reaching here.

The numerous questions raised after the killing of Gangster Vikas Dubey has led to another commission being appointed to probe the encounter. Considering the history of the UP police and the fate of other commissions, will this one also see a quiet burial?
