Vikas Dubey deserved this fate, says his wife at his funeral
Wife of the dead gangster Vikas Dubey said on Friday that he deserved this fate. She said this at the time of last rites of the dreaded gangster. Dubey was gunned down when he tried to escape when police officials were taking him to Kanpur from Ujjain. Dubey snatched police officials pistol and made a bid to escape.
