Three police officers held on

Ahmedabad: Three senior IPS officials, including one from Rajasthan, were on Tuesday arrested by the Gujarat police on a charge of murder for their alleged role in the killing of a man described as a Lashkar-e-Taiba cadre in a fake encounter here in 2005.

Those arrested are Inspector General (border range) D.G. Vanzara, Superintendent of Police Rajkumar Pandyan of the State intelligence wing, and M.N. Dinesh, the SP of Rajasthan's Alwar district.

The arrests were made by CID (Crime) in connection with the death of Sohrabuddin Sheikh, a Madhya Pradesh-based criminal allegedly killed in a gun battle on the outskirts of Ahmedabad on November 26, 2005 during a joint operation by Gujarat's Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) and the Rajasthan police.

"The three have been arrested on murder charges," Additional Director General of Police (Intelligence) Sudhir Sinha told PTI.

Sheikh's wife Kausar Bano has been missing since the time of his death.

After killing Sheikh, police had claimed he was an LeT terrorist on a mission to kill senior BJP leaders, including Chief Minister Narendra Modi.

Mr. Vanzara and Mr. Pandyan were called to the State police chief's office and arrested in the DGP's presence. Mr. Dinesh, who hails from Karnataka, was in Ahmedabad in connection with the probe into the killing and was also arrested.
