Last updated on: July 22, 2020 12:31 IST

Gangster Vikas Dubey's mother, Sarla Devi, on Wednesday appealed to her younger son Deep Prakash Dubey to surrender to the police, saying he and his family would otherwise be killed.

"Deep Prakash, please come forward and surrender or else the police will kill you and your family. The police will protect you. They will just ask a few questions. Why are you hiding if you haven't done anything wrong? Don't hide because of your brother, at least reach out to me by phone," Devi said.

Deep Prakash has been on the run since the Kanpur encounter on July 3, according to Prashant Kumar, Uttar Pradesh Additional Director General, Law and Order.

The Lucknow Police announced a reward of Rs 20,000 for providing information related to the whereabouts of history-sheeter Deep Prakash.
