Bhopal/New Delhi, Nov 2 (IBNS): Chief of Anti-Terror Squad of Madhya Pradesh police has said that the eight SIMI prisoners, who escaped from Bhopal Central Jail and were allegedly killed in a police encounter, did not have any weapons at the encounter spot, an exclusive NDTV report said on Wednesday.
NDTV has also said that this negates the comment by a senior police official who claimed the fleeing terrorists were carrying weapons.
ATS chief, who had led the operation to nab the escaped prisoners, also said that these men were dreaded criminals and the police is within its rights to use maximum force to stop such criminals, reported NDTV.
