Jammu | Nov 24
A year after dramatic broad daylight murder of seemingly reformed gangster popularly known as Bakra, the Police may have closed the case with its initial "successes" but many questions still remain unanswered about the killing conspiracy.
On November 25 last year, Sanjay Kumar alias Bakra was shot dead in the lawns of renowned endocrinologist Dr RP Kudiyar in posh Trikuta Nagar area. The site of Bakra's murder was barely few yards away from the house of business tycoon Rajinder Bhushan Chopra who along with family members was eliminated by a still unknown gang barely two months before Bakra's killing.
The Police, after an intensive chase, claimed to have solved the Bakra murder case with arrest of one Mohan Cheer and his another accomplice who are believed to have killed the former gangster. However, the family of the deceased is not ready to accept in this theory as they believe that the main conspirator has been let off.
On Nov 25, Bakra, who had surrendered before police in 2000, was gunned down by two criminals inside the house of a reputed Endocrinologist and HoD Medicines in GMC Jammu, Dr Rattan Kudiyar at Trikuta Nagar. 38 years old Bakra son of Suraj Prakash, a resident of Mast Garh in Old City was trapped by two criminals using a girl by giving him a call on his Cellphone No. 9419141104 and shot dead using two weapons—a pistol and a shot gun in the lawn of Dr Kudiyar's house within seconds after his arrival in his Santro car No. 8117 JK02B at 9.15 am. According to police Bakra was telephonically called to Trikuta Nagar by a girl. Bakra was reportedly trapped by the criminals using a girl, who had been talking to him on his phone for past fortnight
The moment Bakra entered the gate of Dr Kudyar, one of the accused over-powered him, who too was carrying a licensed revolver, and fired three shots on him with a pistol as soon as he entered the doctor's house and started searching for the girl, who was not present anywhere. As Bakra fell down in lawn of the doctor's house, the second accused fired two shots on him with a shot gun to ensure that he was killed on spot.
Both of them escaped from the spot on a scooter. An eye-witness told police that the scooter had 142 as first three digits of the number with JK02F. The number 142 JK02F was, however, listed against a three-wheeler, sources said, adding either number plate of the scooter was fictitious or one of the digit had been erased from the plate. Sources said Bakra was overpowered by one of the criminals and his associate first fired shots to ensure that Bakra didn't manage to retaliate as he too was in possession of a licensed revolver. A shot gun tied with wooden and a mobile telephone were found from the spot. While the criminals took away their pistol with them, they left the shot gun, which was larger in size than pistol, at the spot.
Calls made and received from the mobile phone are being traced but no body has been arrested on the mobile phone calls record. According to doctors Bakra had sustained five gun shots—two at head, two between neck and shoulder and one on left arm. All five bullets had hit him on left side which indicated that he fell down on the lawn after his feet got stuck in a flower pot with his right side down. There were minor signs of scuffle at the spot including a slightly torn jacket and marks on the back of Bakra. |
