Father of constable Jitendra Pal Singh who lost his life in an encounter at Bikru village in Kanpur, said he was proud of UP Police for "bringing solace to his soul."

Gangster Vikas Dubey has been killed after a car in the Special Task Force convoy, taking him from Madhya Pradesh's Ujjain to Uttar Pradesh's Shivli, overturned in Kanpur. 

The history-sheeter, accused of masterminding a deadly ambush on a police party outside his Bikru village home, apparently tried to flee that led the police team to open fire.
