SI KK Sharma in don’s ‘company’ at henchman Amar Dubey’s wedding

LUCKNOW: Amid allegations of the nexus between some members of

Kanpur police

and gangster Vikas Dubey, a video has gone viral purportedly showing suspended inspector KK Sharma sharing stage with the slain don at the wedding of his

aide Amar Dubey

.

Sharma, who was posted at the

Chaubeypur

police station when the Bikru ambush took place, was suspended after it was found that he had leaked the information about the police raid to Vikas Yadav, giving him enough time to plan the ambush on July 2. Now, this video gives a further proof about his 'proximity' with the gangster. The wedding of Amar Dubey, nephew and aide of Vikas Dubey, took place on June 29. One of the 20 prime accused in the Bikru carnage, Amar Dubey was killed in a police encounter two days before Vikas himself was neutralised.

The 29-second video which went viral on Thursday, shows Sharma, clad in a maroon shirt and black denim, standing on stage along with

Vikas Duubey

, behind bride Kshama and groom Amar, who are sitting. Vikas Dubey is standing in the middle and Sharma is on his right.

When Sharma shifts a little away, Vikas is seen taking a jibe: “Arrey aur nazdik aa jaao, daro nahi” (Come closer, don’t be afraid). Inspector Sharma instantly obliges the don and the two pose for the camera. Sharma also posed with the groom.

A police officer, who wished not to be named, said that Sharma had stayed at Amar's wedding till late in night. A source in the crime branch said that it was because of Dubey's influence that Sharma was posted at the outpost near his village.

Inspector General of police, Kanpur Range, Mohit Agarwal, said that all these are part of the SIT probe.

“We are also probing on all those who were in touch with Dubey. Kanpur police had suspended Sharma on suspicion of his involvement,” he said.
