So i cancelled reindexing and I checked by browsing the table (with Candidate index type) and I didn't saw any duplicate values. Next thing I did was, I modified the table structure and change the index type to regular and browsed it again. Then the duplicate values showed up (regular index type). when i tried to change the index type back to candidate, it wont save the changes anymore since it would violate the index type.

You can duplicates when yur index is corrupted (candidate or primary).
