  killproc function in /lib/lsb/init-functions is returning wrong status
  and pid file is not getting removed by this function.

+ Ubuntu is not killing the process, but returns 0.
+ 
+ But RedHat killproc makes sure that the process is dead before returning
+ 0 otherwise it returns 1.
+ 
+ Hint:
+ I think below command can help to find out the status of the process.
+ 
+ /sbin/start-stop-daemon --status $name_param || status="$?"

  Ubuntu is not killing the process, but returns 0.

  But RedHat killproc makes sure that the process is dead before
  returning 0 otherwise it returns 1.

  Hint:
  I think below command can help to find out the status of the process.
