However, Ragauli district jailor SP Tripathi earlier in the day said Dixit had snatched the service revolver of a jail staff when the official intervened in the argument between the inmates.
According to sources, Kala, a resident of Shamli, was involved in a number of cases of murder, dacoity and extortion cases, whereas Ali was an active member of gangster-turned-politician Mukhtar Ansari’s gang.
Dixit, a resident of Sitapur, was a contract killer who had worked for gangster Munna Bajrangi in the past, they said. Ali was shifted to Chitrakoot on March 20 from Varanasi jail, while Kala came to the jail on May 7 from Saharanpur.
Dixit had been lodged in the jail since December 8, 2019, officials said. The situation inside the jail is now under control, they added.
