New Delhi: Dawood Ibrahim is India’s one of the most wanted criminals who has been declared by the United Nations Security Council and the United States as a terrorist for his association with Al-Qaeda. Son of a police constable, Dawood joined a mob in Mumbai under Karim Lala and later set up a multi-billion-dollar illegal enterprise in the ’80s and ’90s. His criminal activities revolved around prostitution, gambling, and drugs.
The government of India had declared him the mastermind behind the Mumbai attacks in 1993, during which 12 coordinated bombs were detonated across the city, killing 257 and injuring over 700. In 2003, the US placed him on the list of global terrorists. Moreover, the US Department of the Treasury Office has forbidden US financial entities from working with him. He has a smuggling route shared with and used by Al-Qaeda, said reports.
Dawood Ibrahim was also one of the suspects in the 2008 Mumbai attacks, which killed over 170 people. In 2010, Ibrahim made it to Forbes’ World’s 10 Most Wanted list after many attempts to locate him failed.
Is Dawood Ibrahim’s Son Moin Also A Gangster?
Gangster Iqbal Kasker had earlier told Mumbai police that his elder brother, underworld don Dawood Ibrahim, is suffering from depression because there is no one to look after his business after his only son, Moin, turned his back on the family.
As per Iqbal, Moin Nawaz Kaskar, who is in his 30s, has no interest in his father’s business and has devoted himself to religion by becoming a Maulana or cleric or religious teacher in a mosque in Pakistan. Moin has a family, a wife (Sanya) and three children, who too are staying with Moin in a quarter provided by the mosque. Moin teaches religion and also preaches.
He is a management graduate and after helping his father for a few years, he planned to move away and devote himself to preaching about Allah.
Dawood in Pakistan:
As per several reports, Ibrahim has been staying in Pakistan for decades. However, Pakistan has repeatedly denied giving shelter to the criminal.
India has urged Pakistan to hand over 20 fugitives, including Dawood Ibrahim. India has also asked the international community to pressure Pakistan to turn him over and has placed a bounty of $25 million on Dawood’s head.
