During the same routine checking, police found a WagonR car near Usaini village in Raja’s Tal Chowki area on NH-2, a person was sitting in the car with three stars on the police uniform. When Tundla SHO Rajesh Pandey questioned the person sitting in the car, he misled the police by showing a fake ID card, later on after more questioning only did he reveal the truth.
The accused Mukesh Yadav used to go out at the night with one or two of his companions and used to make an illegal recovery in the name of checking from private buses and trucks.
