Triple Arrest in Kheri Damkan CRPF Jawan Murder
Three men, Praveen, Mohit, and Sagar, were arrested by Uttar Pradesh Police on August 1, 2025, in connection with the murder of a CRPF personnel, Krishan, in Kheri Damkan village.
Krishan was fatally shot during a clash that erupted during a Dak Kanwar procession on March 31, 2025. The incident sparked widespread outrage and raised concerns about communal harmony.
The accused are currently in police remand as investigations continue. The police are still searching for the main suspect who remains at large.
This arrest comes as a relief to the victim’s family and the larger CRPF community, but the ongoing search for the main suspect highlights the need for heightened security during religious processions. The incident underscores the urgent need for proactive measures to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
