Kanpur: The police have filed a chargesheet in the court against Jaikant Bajpai, financier of alleged slain gangster Vikas Dubey, and one Rahul Singh for using fake secretariat pass on a vehicle.
Jaikant is currently in jail for allegedly conspiring the Bikru ambush with gangster Vikas Dubey, while his aide Rahul Singh of Chakarpur Mandi area is currently on the run.
The police had booked Jaikant and his accomplice Rahul Singh for using a fake secretariat pass with MLA written on it.
An FIR in this regard was lodged at Kakadeo police station under section 420/467/468/471 and 120 B against Jaikant Bajpai and Rahul Singh.
As many as eight cops including a deputy SP rank officer were shot dead allegedly by Vikas Dubey and his henchmen in an encounter held at Bikru village on the night of July 2 & 3, 2020.
It might be noted that the police soon after the Bikru incident had seized three luxury vehicles, which did not have registration number plates on them, in the Kakadeo area of the city.
Investigation however had later revealed that the vehicles including an Audi car and a Fortuner, were purchased by a local businessman Jaikant Bajpai but registered under different names.
The seized Fortuner vehicle, registered in the name Rahul Singh of Chakarpur Mandi area, had a fake secretariat pass with MLA written on it.
Police had informed that during investigation, it came to fore that the pass was fake and procured using computer software and the same was pasted on the windscreen of the Fortuner vehicle.
“We have submitted a chargesheet on Friday (January 15) in the court against Jaikant Bajpai and his aide Rahul Singh in connection with a fake secretariat vehicle pass case. Besides, a warrant had already been issued against Rahul and searches are underway to make his arrest possible. If he continues to evade arrest, we would attach his property,” said SP (West) Dr Anil Kumar on Monday.
