Maharashtra: ED swoops upon ‘Dawood Ibrahim’ properties

Mumbai: The Enforcement Directorate on Tuesday raided several premises linked to underworld don Dawood Ibrahim in Mumbai and adjoining areas.

The raiding party showed up at Dawood's sister Haseena Parkar's house this morning, and recovered several incriminating documents there.

The agency also kept a close watch on the activities of some Maharashtra politicians so as to confirm if there is any underworld-political nexus.

The agency officials said, "We are conducting raids at ten locations in Mumbai and surrounding areas. These are related to a previous money laundering case, involving gangster Dawood Ibrahim and his associates.”

“A property deal is under the scanner, wherein a senior politician from Maharashtra is also allegedly involved along with others," they said. (UNI)
