Vikas Dubey
Vikas Dubey (26 December 1964 – 10 July 2020) was a notorious Indian gangster-turned-politician, crime boss, mobster and history-sheeter from Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh particularly infamous for the Bikroo case in July 2020. He was commonly known as "Vikas Pandit", naming himself after the titular character of the 1999 film Arjun Pandit, played by Sunny Deol. He was also alternatively referred to as "Pandit Ji" locally.
Prosecutors began the first criminal case against him in the early 1990s. By 2020, Dubey had over 60 criminal cases filed against him. He was connected to the murder of a minister of state, and in another incident, was the main accused in killing eight policemen during an attempted arrest. Uttar Pradesh Police declared him an absconder with a bounty of ₹500,000 on him, and he was arrested on 9 July 2020, in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh. He was killed on 10 July 2020, in an encounter, after the police vehicle carrying him met with an accident. Media reports state that because of his political connections, Dubey had been acquitted for most of his murders, despite the presence of multiple witnesses at the scenes. Following his death, a judicial commission led by a retired Supreme Court judge, B. S. Chauhan, was initiated to probe Dubey's death and how he managed bail, among other things.
