One person was killed and another was injured in what appears to be an inter-gang conflict on Monday night during a Ganga Snan mela at Makhdumpur Ganga Ghat in Uttar Pradesh.
Kaushendra of Alipur Morna village in Mawana was identified as the deceased and was wanted in 16 cases. Another individual, Kartik, was shot in the hand and is receiving treatment in a hospital.
According to Superintendent of Police (rural) Keshav Kumar, Kaushendra was a hardcore criminal with cases of loot, attempted murder, and other crimes filed against him in Mawana, Hastinapur, and other police stations. He was also charged twice with violating the Gangster Act.
Before succumbing to his bullet wounds, Kaushendra named three people in his statement, and one of them has been arrested, while raids are being conducted to apprehend the other two, according to Kumar. A case has been filed against the three defendants.
According to the SP, the accused have a criminal history and were reportedly drinking alcohol at the time of the incident. “It’s possible they got into a fight over something and opened fire,” Kumar speculated.
