2 suspects in the Kanpur shootout have been arrested. In the Kanpur encounter, a probe is on, and gangster Vikas Dubey is still on the run. Relevantly, two sub-inspectors and a constable of Uttar Pradesh police have been suspended on charges of laxity in connection with the death of eight policemen in Kanpur during a raid to arrest gangster Vikas Dubey last week.
The move came a day after an accomplice of Dubey, identified as Daya Shankar Agnihotri, said that the gangster had received a call from someone in the police department, informing him about the raid to arrest him.
