Police in Uttar Pradesh, India, have killed a man wanted for the rape and murder of his 4-year-old niece in a reported encounter. The suspect, Mohammad Jaslim, was carrying a reward of 50,000 rupees on his head. The incident adds to a pattern of controversial police encounters in India, where suspects are often killed rather than arrested and tried in court. Authorities claim the suspect was eliminated during an exchange of fire.
