New Delhi, Feb 19: The fugitive gangster Dawood Ibrahim has organised a special force to attack India.
According to the National Investigation Agency (NIA), the hit list included the names of political leaders and well-known businessmen.
According to the FIR filed by the NIA, Dawood Ibrahim and his special unit planned to attack the country with explosives and dangerous weapons in the hopes of sparking violence in various regions of the country.
Apart from that, the gangster is concentrating his efforts in Delhi and Mumbai, according to the investigation agency.
The ED had recently filed a money laundering case against Dawood Ibrahim and his associates for their role in terror financing. Ibrahim’s brother, Iqbal Kaskar, as well as his aides and gang members, are to be questioned by the ED.
Notably, Iqbal Kaskar was arrested on Friday and sent into ED custody until February 24.
On Tuesday, the central agency raided Kaskar’s houses in ten different locations throughout Mumbai.
The case stems from a FIR filed in the Kasarvadavli police station under the Indian Penal Code against Kaskar, Mumtaz Shaikh, and Israr Ali Jamil Sayyed. They were detained on September 9, 2017 for forcibly extorting one flat and a sum of Rs. 90 lakh from builder Suresh Jain as protection money.
