PRAYAGRAJ: The Allahabad high court on Monday rejected the bail plea of one Rekha Agnihotri, who is one of the accused in the Bikru ambush in which eight policemen including a deputy SP and three sub-inspectors had been killed by slain gangster Vikas Dubey and his accomplices.
It is alleged that Rekha Agnihotri along with other women exhorted the accused persons to kill the police personnel. It is further alleged that she along with other women was saying that no one should be spared.
Rejecting the bail of Rekha, Justice Samit Gopal observed, “The daredevil manner in which the incident took place leaves much to be said. The incident cannot be committed with just a handful of persons. It was a preplanned incident where all aspects appeared to have been designed and persons were entrusted jobs which had been performed by them independently and collectively.
The bail application of coaccused Khushi identically placed co-accused, though she claimed minority, has been rejected by a co-ordinate Bench of this court. The involvement of the applicant is there in the present matter. Her participation is also there for which there are eye witnesses stating about it”. A case against the applicant was registered at police station Chaubepur, Kanpur Nagar.
