The UK government, which has continued imposing of financial sanctions against Dawood Ibrahim, has found that India’s most wanted don been using at least 21 aliases in Pakistan and has three addresses.
The revelations were made in a latest report released by UK Treasury department’s ‘Consolidated List of Financial Sanctions Targets in the UK’.
According to the report of the UK government, 21 aliases have been used by the mafia boss Dawood Ibrahim.
DAWOOD’S ALIASES:
Abdul, Shaikh, Ismail; Abdul Aziz, Abdul Hamid; Abdul Rehman, Shaikh, Mohd, Ismail; Anis, Ibrahim, Shaikh, Mohd; Bhai, Bada; Bhai, Dawood; Bhai, Iqbal; Dilip, Aziz; Ebrahim, Dawood; Farooqi, Sheikh; Hasan, Kaskar, Dawood; Hassan, Dawood; Ibrahim, Anis; Ibrahim, Dowood, Hassan, Shaikh; Kaskar, Daud, Hasan, Shaikh, Ibrahim; Kaskar, Daud, Ibrahim, Memon; Kaskar, Dawood, Hasan, Ibrahim; Memon, Dawood, Ibrahim; Sabri, Dawood; Sahab, Haji; and Seth, Bada.
Dawood remains the only “Indian national” on the updated list of financial sanctions.
His place of birth is recorded as Kher in Maharashtra’s Ratnagiri. His nationality is listed as “Indian” with a recorded Indian passport which was subsequently revoked by the government of India and then goes on to list a string of Indian and Pakistani passports acquired by him and misused.
“Father’s name is Sheikh Ibrahim Ali Kaskar, Mother’s name is Amina Bi, Wife’s name is Mehjabeen Shaikh. Also referred to as Hizrat and Mucchad,” the listing on Ibrahim, first made on November 7, 2003, notes.
Dawood is recorded by the report to have three addresses in Pakistan, where he is based.
DAWOOD’S ADDRESSES IN PAKISTAN:
1. House No 37, 30th Street – defence, Housing Authority, Karachi.
2. Noorabad, Karachi (Palatial bungalow in the hilly area).
3. White House, Near Saudi Mosque, Clifton, Karachi.
A fourth address on record until last year – House no. 29, Margalla Road, F 6/2 Street No. 22, Karachi, Pakistan – is no longer part of the records.
The fugitive mafia boss is the main accused in the 1993 serial bomb blasts case in Mumbai which claimed around 260 lives.
Dawood has been running his underworld empire from Pakistan since his escape from India 23 years ago but Pakistan has always denied that Dawood is in the country.
The son of a Mumbai police constable who got involved with gang members of Haji Mastan, the crime lord has been on the United Nations Security Council’s sanctions list since 2003.
The financial sanctions list by the UK government also included organisations such as the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), Khalistan Zindabad Force and Hizbul Mujahideen.
A series of affiliates of ‘Al-Qaeda’ and the ‘Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant’ are also recorded on the list.
Financial sanctions in force could apply to individuals, entities and governments who may be resident in the UK or abroad.
The measures include prohibiting the transfer of funds to a sanctioned country and freezing the assets of a government, the corporate entities and residents of the target country to targeted asset freezes on individuals/entities.
Certain financial sanctions may also prohibit providing or performing other financial services, such as insurance, to designated individuals or governments.
It is a criminal offence to breach a financial sanction, without an appropriate licence or authorisation from the UK Treasury.
