Gollum Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 Nails Pakistani high commissioner Abdul Basit's lie that "Dawood is not in Pakistan"(http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Dawood-Ibrahim-not-in-Pakistan-says-envoy-Abdul-Basit/articleshow/47235385.cms) :finger: -Around four months ago, intelligence agencies traced Dawood's three calls from Pakistan to his associate Javed in Dubai, yet again confirming the gangster's presence in the neighbouring country. - Javed, according to sources, looks after Dawood's business interests in Dubai and India. Dawood was regularly heard talking to another associate, identified as Tariq, over phone from Pakistan a few months before the three calls to Javed, sources said. While Javed reportedly manages Dawood's businesses including real estate, narcotics, extortion, hawala, betting and fixing, not much is known about Tariq. Dawood's one-time right hand man Tariq Parveen was arrested by Uttar Pradesh ATS earlier this year. Dawood was only talking about his businesses in these calls. - The intercepted calls are significant at a time when the Narendra Modi government has asked law enforcement agencies, Intelligence Bureau and RAW among others, to adopt an aggressive approach towards the underworld don and his business interests. - According to sources, national security advisor Ajit Doval, who is deeply familiar with Dawood's ways and his activities, is very keen on tough action against the criminal, :two_thumbs_up: who has eluded Indian agencies for more than 22 years now. Doval, sources added, has held several meetings with different agencies to track Dawood since taking over as NSA. - The recent crackdown by Enforcement Directorate on properties belonging to Dawood and his slain associate Iqbal Mirchi in India and abroad is seen as tightening the noose around the fugitive, who lives in Pakistan under ISI's patronage. - The NDA government is looking to block Dawood's properties worth over Rs 3,000 crore as its plans to financially choke his network. Several countries including Cyprus, the UAE, the UK, Morocco, Spain and Turkey will soon be approached for action on the assets, which have been allegedly acquired through anti-national activities. "There is an effort to gag Dawood's activities by killing his businesses in India and other countries," said an official. -"There is sudden activity in the government and intelligence circles on Dawood," said an official. When asked if the government was actually serious about bringing Dawood back to India, the officer said, "The present NSA looks very keen." If there is someone who can bring this scumbag to justice it is Ajit Doval.
Roshanrocks Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 Old news. So wat are we going to do about it. Nothing.. Dawood will most likely lead a nice life and die of old age :asleep:
mishra Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 We need some agency like Mossad. Track down and execute. Else, simple would be to create another Dawood who can execute.
Khalpat Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 This surely is going to be the toughest test for Doval. Dawood hiding in plain sight with new identity: US experts MADHAV NALAPAT New York | 25th Jul 2015 Experts in counter-terrorism activities say that there is "credible information that India's most wanted person", Dawood Ibrahim Kaskar, aka Sheikh Dawood Hassan, who, ironically, was the son of a Mumbai police constable of known integrity, "was in March 2003 given a new identity and accompanying papers by the ISI, in order to reduce the chances of detection and to facilitate his travel to multiple locations across the globe, including South Africa, Malaysia, Thailand, Hong Kong, Portugal and Dubai". They say that this identity change was carried out once it was confirmed that the United States (responding to repeated requests by the A.B. Vajpayee government at the level of Home Minister L.K. Advani and National Security Advisor Brajesh Mishra) would declare Dawood a Specially Designated International Terrorist. This was done in October 2003, or six months after Dawood's identity makeover. According to these sources, "such a step had no effect on Dawood's international operations, both business and terror-related", in view of the fact that he was thereby enabled to travel safely to multiple locations through use of the documents prepared for him by the ISI. They claim that Dawood was made aware in advance — presumably by the Pakistan authorities — that he would be labelled an international terrorist by the US. Responding to this, towards the close of 2002 itself, the canny fugitive had transferred properties which were in his name to nominees and benamis, so that nothing of any value was seized anywhere in the world, including in India, where he has substantial assets, especially in Mumbai and Hyderabad. Terrorism, hawala and narcotics go hand in hand in Dawood's business empire, which at its peak had an estimated annual turnover of $4 billion in value before beginning a decline around 2007, because of increased US tracking of his assets and the financial networks operating on his behalf in Hong Kong and Singapore. The heightened interest was because of the expansion of operations of the LeT to Europe. "During 2006-2011, (Dawood) sold much of his international businesses and relocated some assets to India and most to Pakistan", these US-based sources claimed, adding that there was little effective countering of Dawood's operations in India during the period in office of both Prime Ministers Vajpayee and Manmohan Singh. But they added that "the heat has increased after (Prime Minister) Modi took over in 2014". During Narendra Modi's visit to the US in September 2014, National Security Advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval stayed an extra two days in Washington "mainly to work out ways of capturing or otherwise incapacitating Dawood". They add that Doval told his US interlocutors that he had been on the fugitive's trail for two decades, and that he wanted to ensure success in the hunt during his tenure in office as the NSA. However, the problem facing the sleuths in India is that the mastermind of the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts has been travelling under a new legal identity since 2003, and has adopted a very low profile, shunning the high-profile events he was earlier seen in, "although he retains his contacts with Bollywood and is working to ensure through his contacts that favourites of his be given meaty roles". They say that sports and movies are his favourite hobbies, as well as being money-spinners, mainly through match-fixing in the case of the first and influence over distribution networks in the subcontinent in the case of the second. These sources claim that "the 26/11 attack could not have succeeded the way it did but for longstanding contacts within the Mumbai police and state political network of Dawood and his close associates". They claim that "high-level politicians, afraid of being implicated through Dawood ensured that the domestic angle was never seriously probed by the police following the blasts", with the bulk of attention being focused on captured operative Ajmal Kasab and his contacts in Pakistan. "It was as though the investigators were told not to believe that there was a network in India, which provided information to ISI proxies about the interior layout and work schedules of the Taj Mahal and Oberoi Trident hotels." These sources claim that "at least two employees of Taj and another of Trident" gave details about the hotel to planners in Pakistan. But none of the three "were questioned by the police and in fact remained in service after the blasts". However, on the Indian side, police authorities in Mumbai claim that no employee of either hotel was involved in the planning for the 26/11 attack, nor was there any input from domestic networks. "It helped such a surmise of domestic non-involvement that handlers in Pakistan cut off all communications with their collaborators in India 16 days before the attack", these experts claimed. Although there have been reports of Dawood hiding in PoK or in a remote location close to the Afghan border, US sources say that like Osama bin Laden before his assassination, Dawood is "hiding in plain sight" and in comfort, shuttling between homes in Peshawar, Hyderabad (Sindh) and Lahore and that he is in regular touch with family members in both Pakistan as well as India, sometimes directly but usually through trusted associates who travel freely in both countries and who are not known to law enforcement to have any connection with Dawood himself. However, the don is "still very much in charge of the operations of the companies he owns", as well as his traditional business of extracting money from businesspersons in India, besides dealings in real estate, mainly in Maharashtra, his home state "where he knows several officials and politicians, even meeting in the past with them in locations where his actual identity is safe from detection". The sources claim that "a director-general of police and five inspectors-general of police and DIGs have worked for Dawood in the past". However, they add that since the new government took office in 2014, conditions have become more difficult. A claim made by these sources is that Dawood in 2006 travelled on an international flight from the UAE to South Africa and "the seat next to him was occupied by a senior politician who knew whom he was talking to throughout the journey". They claim that "up to 2008 (when the Mumbai attacks took place), at least two senior NDA leaders and four top UPA personalities were in direct and indirect contact" with the reclusive Enemy Number One of India, but that "after 26/11, all but one of the six stopped further contact". However, even this remaining holdout among the VVIP Six "stopped contact with Dawood in 2011". The counter-terrorism experts say that Dawood's family is "almost totally unaware of the new identity of their internationally known relative as given in the travel documents", supplied to Dawood 12 years ago, and that these papers are used "only while travelling internationally and domestically and in financial transactions", so that the names and aliases of Dawood do not come up on any record, including those of banks and airlines. They add that since 2011, the don has ceased communicating directly through telephone, and is using close aides to relay his messages. Since 2012, he has even restricted his travel, confining himself to locations within Pakistan. The New York sources give high marks to National Security Advisor Ajit Doval for his persistence in trying to bring Dawood back to India, but say that in view of the change in the records establishing his identity, such a task would be difficult without the cooperation of Pakistan, something unlikely to be forthcoming
Sachin=GOD Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 As if there was some doubt about him being in Pak.
vayuu1 Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 As if there was some doubt about him being in Pak. @$$$₩hole$ like him needs to be captured and publicly executed.
asterix Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 @$$$₩hole$ like him needs to be captured and publicly executed. You sound like an Israeli... Don't forget you are an Indian... Don't dream of things which are not possible...
vayuu1 Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 You sound like an Israeli... Don't forget you are an Indian... Don't dream of things which are not possible... I know yaar but still, you need to install fear amongst war mongers
The Realist Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 You sound like an Israeli... Don't forget you are an Indian... Don't dream of things which are not possible... Exactly. The Israelis would have taken him & his family out years ago & been exploiting his assets. India instead prefers to compile dossiers like a wedding planner.
Texan Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 @$$$₩hole$ like him needs to be captured and publicly executed. There is a greater chance of seeing pigs flying in your lifetime.
Raghav_12 Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 @$$$₩hole$ like him needs to be captured and publicly executed. Our PM is busy in saree-shawl hobnobbing patrons of this man.
