Cash reward for providing info on accused

The Uttar Pradesh police on Wednesday announced a cash reward of Rs 5,000 for anyone providing information about the six accused in the Badkali killing case, in which eight persons were killed.

"A reward of Rs 5,000 will be given to those providing information about any of the six accused including gram pradhan Mamta, former gram pradhan Mino Tyagi, Ajay Shukla, Bobi Sharma, Mohit and Umesh who are absconding since the incident," SSP Praveen Kumar told reporters here.

In the Badkali incident, eight members of a family including Cane Society ex-chairman Udeyvir Singh were killed and one was injured when a truck hit their jeep at Delhi- Saharanpur highway, near Badkali village on 11th July, he said.

Six women had been arrested last week from Badhai Kala village for allegedly giving shelter to the accused involved in the alleged murder, he added.
