Three AP police booked for firing and killing dacoit in Jaipur

Jaipur: As many as three FIRs have been filed in connection with the killing of a man wanted in a dacoity case and injuring another allegedly by the Andhra Pradesh police in Jalore district, the police said.

A woman was also killed after being hit by the car of the suspects which was being chased by the Andhra Pradesh Police.

A three-member team of the Andhra Pradesh Police yesterday chased the car of Bheem Singh and Bharat Purohit.

Singh had been evading arrest in a dacoity case.

During the chase, Singh lost control over the car and it hit Damta Jogi (55), leading to her death.

The Andhra Pradesh police officials opened fire on the duo leading to the death of Singh, while Purohit was injured.

The Rajasthan Police had claimed that their Andhra Pradesh counterparts did not inform them about the operation beforehand.

“Three separate FIRs were lodged, one of them was against the deceased and Bharat Purohit for opening fire at the police when they tried to stop them. The second was on Purohit’s complaint against four unnamed people for injuring him and killing Bheem Singh,” SHO of Sanchore police station Sukhram Bishnoi said.

“The third FIR was filed on the complaint of the family members of the deceased woman in connection with her accident and death,” the officer said.

The post-mortem of Bheem Singh would be done today, the police said, adding the body of the deceased woman has been handed over to her family members.
