Mumbai: India’s most-wanted fugitive gangster, Dawood Ibrahim, is in Karachi, his nephew Alishah Parkar has revealed before the Enforcement Directorate, strengthening India’s case that the neighbouring country harbours terrorists who have killed hundreds of Indians and caused havoc in the country.
Alishah Parkar further said that his family also greets Dawood’s wife during festive occasions. Dawood Ibrahim had left India around 1986, Parkar has told the financial probe agency. Dawood Ibrahim is also a UN-designated global terror financer.
“Dawood Ibrahim is my maternal uncle and he used to live on the fourth floor of the Dambarwala building in south Mumbai till 1986. I have heard from various sources and relatives that Dawood Ibrahim is in Karachi,” Parkar said in his statement.
“I was not born when he moved to Karachi and neither I nor my family members are in touch with him. Occasionally, on Eid, Diwali and other festive occasions, Mrs Mehjabeen Dawood Ibrahim – my aunt and my maternal uncle get in touch with my wife Ayesha and my sisters,” he added.
