New Delhi: Slain gangster Vikas Dubey’s wife has said that she had unsuccessfully tried to convince her husband to leave the path of crime, and now with him being dead the family has been left in the lurch.
“Today, we terribly needed him. He has left nothing for us. People may say that he has left a property worth Rs 500 crore, but the truth is that I do not have anything,” the gangster’s wife Richa Dubey told a TV news channel.
To a query that Dubey has properties worth crores at a number of places, even in Dubai, she said, ‘This is absolutely fake news. Just think, if a person has property worth crores, will his wife live in a 1,600 square feet house in Lucknow?’
Meanwhile, the Uttar Pradesh police has said gangster Vikas Dubey’s close aide Prabhat Mishra alias Kartikey, who was killed as he attempted to flee from police custody while being taken to Kanpur from Faridabad, was not a minor, as claimed by his family.
The police claimed on Thursday that Kartikey forged his Class 8 transfer certificate and showed his age lower by four years. With the help of the fake document, he took admission in another school and graduated from high school in 2018, they said.
