Fugitive Dowry Murder Accused Shot in Dramatic Greater Noida Police Encounter

In a dramatic turn of events, Vipin, the primary accused in a shocking dowry murder case, was apprehended by Greater Noida Police following a fierce encounter. The fugitive, who had been absconding for over a month and carried a reward of Rs 25,000 on his head, sustained a bullet injury to his leg during the intense shootout.

The confrontation unfolded near the Ghanghola canal in the Ecotech 3 area late Tuesday night.

Police patrolling the vicinity attempted to stop Vipin, who was riding a motorcycle, for a routine check. Instead of complying, the suspect allegedly opened fire on the officers, prompting a swift and decisive retaliation from the police.

During the exchange of gunfire, Vipin was shot in the leg, bringing his month-long evasion to an abrupt end.

A police constable, identified as Amit, also sustained injuries during the encounter, highlighting the dangerous nature of the operation. Authorities quickly secured the scene, recovering a pistol, live cartridges, and the motorcycle Vipin was using.

Vipin stands accused of the heinous crime of murdering his wife for dowry and subsequently dumping her body in a canal.

A case had been registered against him under Section 304B of the Indian Penal Code (dowry death). His capture marks a significant breakthrough in the investigation, bringing a measure of justice closer for the victim's family.
