Vikas Dubey was able to shoot 8 policemens due to internal support of some corrupt police. Till date, three policemen have been suspended for their alleged involvement in tipping off Dubey ahead of the police raid in which eight cops lost their lives and seven were seriously injured. The suspended police personnel include two sub-inspectors and a constable.
