Bhopal/New Delhi, Nov 3 (IBNS) Amid questions being raised over the encounter killing of eight SIMI prisoners by the Madhya Pradesh Police, a new audio, surfaced on Thursday, revealed that a voice directed a person to "finish them all" after being informed that five fleeing terrorists were already executed.

In a crackling walkie-talkie recording available with NDTV channel, a voice, alleged to be of an MP cop, is first heard informing another person that five men out of the eight fleeing prisoners were killed.

Then another voice, again alleged to be of a cop, directed the first person to kill them all.

A few seconds later, a voice informs that all eight have been killed following which rounds of applause are heard in the recording.

This comes after an exclusive NDTV video recording showed that the SIMI prisoners did not have any weapons at the encounter spot.

However, a senior police official had earlier 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.
