An accused in the Lakhan Bhaiya encounter case has written to the home minister and Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, urging them to revoke the decision to dismiss the arrested police personnel from service. In the letter, the accused, who is currently out on furlough, also urged the government to continue with subsistence allowance for all the arrested cops.
Of the 21 accused sentenced to life imprisonment for killing Ramnarayan Vishwanath Gupta alias Lakhan Bhaiya in an encounter on November 11, 2006, 13 are police officers. The cops were arrested following complaints from Lakhan’s brother before the Bombay High Court alleging that the encounter carried out by D N Nagar and Versova cops was fake and designed to kill Lakhan who was booked in 10 cases, including five under charges of murder.
