Indian media: Pakistan ‘admits’ Dawood Ibrahim living in Karachi [Pakistan’s response in Post #22]

Pakistan admits Dawood Ibrahim living in Karachi, imposes financial curbs on underworld don and 87 others

Asian News International

August 22, 2020

Islamabad: Underworld don Dawood Ibrahim, one of the most wanted in India, is living in Karachi, according to a Pakistan government's document. Islamabad has for years denied that it has sheltered Dawood, responsible for the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts, along with other terrorists.

Dawood Ibrahim is wanted in India to face the law of the land for carrying out serial blasts in Mumbai in 1993 in which scores of people were killed and injured. India has asked Pakistan several times to hand over Dawood Ibrahim.

The document that revealed Dawood's location was related to a list of 88 terrorists that were sanctioned by Pakistan government. His address on the document is White House, Karachi.

Pakistan has imposed more restrictions on 88 leaders and members of terrorist groups, in compliance with the new list, issued by the United Nations Security Council.

Hafiz Saeed Ahmad of Jamaat-ud-Dawa, Mohammad Masood Azhar of JeM and Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi are on the list.

According to the details, the government has also seized the bank accounts and properties of the terrorists in the country. They have also been banned from travelling aboard, Ary News reported.

Pakistan has been in the grey list since June 2018 and the government had given a final warning in February to complete the remaining action points by June 2020. The FATF extended the June deadline to September due to the spread of coronavirus that disrupted the FATF plenary meetings.

If Pakistan fails to comply with the FATF directive by October, the Paris-based body could push the Imran Khan-led country onto the "Black List" along with North Korea and Iran.

Not surprised. If this country can hide osama than dawood is nothing.

The govt has nothing to do with this. It is the establishment

okay and india houses people that terrorized Pakistanis and Kashmiris. Every country has their assets, Canada has some Khaalistanis and the UK has Altaf Hussein.
 
Pakistan will get no relief from FATF sanctions until it deports Dawood Ibrahim back to his homeland.

So is it the establishment who decided to put curbs on Dawood Ibrahim?
 
when you are about to be blacklisted than you will have to follow orders.

To avoid going on the Blacklist Pakistan needs only 3 FATF member countries to support them. Turkey, China are 2 that will never support the Blacklist for Pakistan. Malaysia will probably be another country Pakistan can count on. Saudi and UAE maybe might support Pakistan.

Pakistan is right now on the grey list not on the Blacklist, so they are not facing sanctions right now. Most likely they will avoid them as they only need 3 countries to support them. However Pakistan cant count on Saudi Arabia and UAE anymore.

So its too close for comfort. Turkey and China are definitely 2 countries Pakistan can expect support from. Most likely Malaysia will as well, but its getting too risky.

My assumption is this is to be removed from grey list, I didn't think it was to avoid getting blacklisted :/
 
Good we should keep him as leverage. After all India also gives safe haven to Baluch separatists.

How many FATF countries are there? If it needs only 3, it doesn't seem THAT difficult.

They literally house the masterminds of the Samjauta express blasts, the victims have yet to recieve justice

Lets not forget the Mumbai bombings were in retaliation to Mumbai riots.

The instigators of those riots are in power in Mumbai.
 
Three addresses in Pakistan’s Karachi city are in focus following Islamabad’s tacit acknowledgement that the United Nations designated global terrorist and the main accused in 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts, Dawood Ibrahim, could be having multiple residences in the Pakistani port city apart from being in possession of at least one Pakistani passport.

The admission by Pakistan has come after years in denial of India’s assertion that it was actively involved in sheltering one of the most wanted fugitives from Indian justice system. The implicit admission has now come in the form of an official order that sanctions 88 individuals and several organizations in Pakistan involved in terrorism and terror financing ahead of a review of Pakistan’s compliance with international rules against money laundering and terror financing networks by FATF, the international watchdog.

The Pakistan government document lists White House, Karachi as one of Dawood’s three addresses in the city of Karachi, long suspected to be Dawood’s base.

The document also lists the other two addresses- House Number 37 - 30th Street - defence, Housing Authority Karachi, Pakistan and a “Palatial bungalow” in the hilly area of Noorbad, Karachi.

It is for the first time that Pakistan has admitted the presence of the underworld don in the country. In 2003, the US declared Ibrahim as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist. The UN and the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the US treasury department have listed Karachi as Dawood’s residence for years and dossiers have been given to Pakistan in the past requesting action against his interests and network, but without luck.

In March 2010, the 1267 Committee (the al Qaeda Sanctions Committee) listed four addresses for Ibrahim in a statement: “a) Karachi/Pakistan, White House, Near Saudi Mosque, Clifton b) House Nu 37 - 30th Street - defence, Housing Authority Karachi Pakistan c) Palatial bungalow in the hilly area of Noorabad in Karachi d) Property at Margalla Raod F 6/2 Street no. 22, House number 29 in Karachi.”

According to counter terror operatives based in New Delhi and Mumbai, who were quoted in a Hindustan Times report earlier this year, Dawood has been living in Karachi under the protection of the state. Not just that, he also has three-bullet proof cars in his convoy and often travels to Islamabad.

The UN statement also lists his latest passport as being issued in Rwalpindi, the twin city of Islamabad where the army headquarters are based. He used to carry Indian and UAE passports in the 1980s and early 1990s. The UN documents are in the public domain. The Pakistan government document reportedly also refers to the passports issued to Dawood from Rawalpindi and Karachi offices.

Bharatiya Janata Party national spokesman Shahnawaz Hussain on Saturday said that Pakistan should hand over Dawood Ibrahim to India.

Speaking to ANI, Hussain said, “Pakistan knew that it had given shelter to Dawood Ibrahim. His children were married to a famous Pakistani cricketer. Every person in Pakistan knew that he lives in Karachi. However, till date Pakistan did not accept it. Now Pakistan should immediately hand over Dawood Ibrahim to India. Because he is the most wanted in India.”

He said that he is still involved in crime in India and even today many crimes are done in India through Dawood Ibrahim.

Saudi and UAE haven't supported Pakistan in FATF.

Malaysia did support pakistan. But with Mahathir gone Malaysia may be persuaded to change.

Also remember Pakistan needs 15 votes to get out of the grey list.
 
This guy makes altaf look like a saint
Not sure why there's never been a lockdown similar to the sohrab goth one
 
Am I missing something here? All the sources covering this are from Indian media and without any direct quotes. Where and how had Pakistan admitted this other than in the minds of the Indian media?

I don't get this either, why do people keep posting news articles from Indian sources and passing it off as fact? Its the same in the Cricket forum.
 
Issuance of Statutory Regulatory Orders (SROs)

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued two consolidated SROs on 18 August 2020, reflecting the current status of the UN Taliban and ISIL(Da’esh) and AQ Sanctions list. These lists contain names of individuals and entities designated under the two sanction regimes established pursuant to the UN Security Council resolutions. The consolidated SROs are issued periodically as a routine matter. Similar SROs have been issued, by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in the past, as per statutory requirements to meet our international obligations. Last such SROs were issued in 2019.

The SROs issued reflect information contained in the list entry of UN designated individuals/entities. The reports in certain sections of the media about Pakistan imposing new sanctions measures, through these SROs, are not factual. Similarly, the assertions made by some sections of the Indian media, as to Pakistan admitting to the presence of certain listed individuals on its territory, based on the information contained in the SRO, are baseless and misleading.

It is once again reiterated that the information contained in the SRO is reproduced as per the details in the list entry of the individuals/entities designated under the two sanctions regime, which is publically available, and contains names of individuals who despite their confirmed deceased status still continue to be on the sanctions list.

Pakistanis who defend Dawood are on a wrong path.

He's an Indian criminal living on an illegal political asylum within Pakistan. If you don't want to hand him over then let us have a fair trial in the international court against him.

Is this guy a muslim icon? If yes, them it's shameful. This guy orchestrated murder of hundreds and thousands of innocent people in Mumbai. He's a known drug trafficking kingpin. Why is Dawood a big deal to some Pakistanis? Can someone explain.

Totally respect and encourage yours views on this.

There are some battles not worth fighting and Dawood's custody is one of them.

No Dawood Ibrahim isnt that famous in Pakistan and people dont care about him. Yes he is regarded as the gangster whos daughter is married to Miandad's son. But people dont support him or anything in Pakistan.
Its just the pakistanis on the forum who try to support just to rile the indians up

Who the Pakistani's really support is Hafiz Saeed. I had seen many times his huge rallies go by and he would have police protection with him. People like him as he is some so called mujahid fighting for Kashmir

Look who's talking.

What about Shiv Sena who perpetrated the Mumbai riots?

They have seats in Mumbai and in parliament.

How many of Shiv Sena have been brought to justice?
 
The more Pakistani's deny that war criminals like Osama Bin Laden and Dawood Ibrahim lived/lives in their country as safe heaven and questions the establishment, nothing is going to change unfortunately. And lol @ posters comparing Dawood's D gang with Shiv Sena. Matlab kuch bhi :))

Yes Shiv Sena were only responsible for killing 2000 Muslims in riots.

What about Samjauta express? The main accused is now a politician.

Lets not forget your PM is barred from entering the West because of his hand in Gujarat riots.

India is a country run by law n order and not by whims of Pakistanis. Both Samjhauta express convicts and Narendra Modi has been given clean chits by court. Modi was barred from entering USA when there was an ongoing case against him. CBI under congress govt has grilled him for years, couldnt find any evidence and gave him free chit. Same west who barred him before...welcomed him back with red carpet.

Why dont Pakistan handover Dawood Ibrahim to India and let him face the same law? If he is innocent, he will be acquited.

All these whataboutery about Shiv Sena and all is just distraction tactis. There is a reason Pakistan is still in FATF grey list and India is no where close to it.

A lot of Indians are actually quite happy that Dawood is sitting pretty in Pakistan. A number of Indian politicians, cutting across party lines, have had shady dealings with him in the past. If Dawood returns to India and opens his mouth in court, a lot of heads will roll and plenty of political careers will come to an end.

If Pakistan does decide to deport Dawood to India, you can be sure that the Indian law enforcement will finish him off in a fake encounter before he can talk. If some reports are to be believed, Dawood is in weak health. So he can pass away 'accidentally' in a jail cell too.

No one in Pakistan cares about him. Honestly, not a single person. It's the Indians and the Indian media obsession. Google this news you will not find a single non-Indian source nor will you find any quotes in the articles that explain the acceptance.

When will you guys grow up and stop believing in fairy tales? When will you end your obsession with Pakistan?

What makes you think we want anything to change? We're good as we are and we really don't need any changes. I do agree with your second point though. One is a political party which is still in power and has been inciting hatred and violence since the 60's and the other is a mere bookie who lasted maybe 10 years. The difference is huge and people shouldn't compare and nor should Pakistani's care. India should learn to handle its issues itself.
 
I only learnt about this dawood Ibrahim guy knows pakpassion

@War criminal :)))

Which war crimes has this Ibrahim chap committed?
 
How many FATF countries are there? If it needs only 3, it doesn't seem THAT difficult.

37.

My assumption is this is to be removed from grey list, I didn't think it was to avoid getting blacklisted :/

Yes that is the most likely intention, however it seems difficult as it needs 15 countries to get off the grey list. And right now Pakistan can only count on 2 countries, Turkey and China, to vote no for Blacklist. So its too close for comfort, so this should ensure that Pakistan at worse case remains only on the grey list.

I only learnt about Dawood and Hafiz Saeed by Indians on PP due to their constant whining, that's how much of a nobody they are to average Pakistanis.
 
Generally anything that only appears in Indian media and not anywhere else can be safely disregarded as fake news. I have seen this play out so many times now that this can't just be a coincidence.

In the 2018 election his party won 0 out of 342 seats. They did not even get 1% of the vote. So unless less than 1% is alot to you, then you are saying nonsense by implying that Pakistanis support Hafiz Saeed.

Pakistan has 200 million people. Percentage wise his supporters are low. I mean the Aurat March has alot of supporters than too, as they have big rallies. But in reality most Pakistanis dont support them.

He has a point.

Dawud Ibrahim guy is someone the majority of Pakistanis haven’t even heard of let alone have an opinion of him.

On the other hand, Hafiz Saeed is somewhat known
 
Dawood surely has connections with lots of Indian politicians, businessmen and Bollywood Bhai like Salman Khan, Sanjay Dutt and others. The day he lands in India he will be killed by our police in a fake encounter just like that UP gangster who was killed few weeks ago in a fake encounter to save corrupt politicians. :inti

What led to Dawood attacking Bombay? Did he just go mad?
 
What crime has he committed in Pakistan?

By the way he did visit Pakistan where he praised Jinnah.


https://www.telegraphindia.com/india/advani-wanted-in-pakistan/cid/906041

From the article :inti

Guess who's on the possible list of criminals Pakistan wants India to hand over? Lal Krishna Advani. The home minister is wanted for conspiring to assassinate Mohammad Ali Jinnah in 1947, according to a report an English daily, The News, carried today. Officials in the foreign office in Islamabad refused to comment till they had verified the story. But in Karachi, some court officials said they have found a 'dormant' file which names Advani and others as absconders.

The case is based on an FIR (number 4/47) registered on September 10, 1947, by the then station house officer at Jamshed Quarters, Inspector Tooti Ram. The 18 accused were charged with hatching a criminal conspiracy to assassinate then governor-general Qaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, Prime Minister Liaquat Ali Khan, Khawaja Nazimuddin and other top-line leaders of the Pakistan movement.

Six of them were arrested while the remaining 12, including Advani and some leaders of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP), absconded. The arrested - Khem Chand s/o Gopal Das, Nand Ram s/o Gobind Ram, Gobind s/o Lal Singh, Hargobind s/o Ghando Mal, Santo s/o Ghando Mal and Tayken Das s/o Jairam - were tried and convicted. They were awarded different penalties by the court.

The case against the 12 absconding accused was placed in the dormant file pending their arrest. Later, New Delhi and Islamabad reached an agreement under which the six convicts were extradited to India on September 19, 1948. But the case against Advani and the absconding VHP leaders is still pending and the Pakistan government can demand their handover.

You know very well how to gather people for rally :) So you shouldnt make such childish comment. If you have money, even you can gather a rally of thousands.

when they have rallies planned, the supporters of Hafiz Saeed come in multiple busses and trucks. GT road is jammed pack when their bandwagon arrives.

THe lot is brainwashed that they are helping kashmir

Is Mumbai in pakistan? How is anyone answerable to Pakistan for something that happened in an indian city?

Talk some sense.
 
ISLAMABAD: The government has banned another militant outfit taking the number of outlawed organisations to 77.

The fresh addition to the list is Khatam-Ul-Ambia, said to be an offshoot of Ansarul Hussain which was banned in the late 2016 for its alleged involvement in recruiting the youth from the Shia community to fight the militant Islamic State (IS) group commonly known as Daesh.

The process of maintaining a list of proscribed organisations started on Aug 14, 2001 when Lashkar-e-Jhangvi and Sipah-i-Mohammad Pakistan were outlawed. Later, on Jan 14, 2002, the government banned Jaish-e-Mohammad, Lashkar-e-Taiba, Sipah-i-Sahaba Pakistan, Tehreek-i-Islami and Tehreek-i-Nifaz Shariat-i-Mohammadi.

Tehreek-i-Jafria Pakistan was put on the list on Jan 28, 2002, followed by Al Qaeda on March 17, 2003, Millat-i-Islamia Pakistan and Khuddamul Islam on Nov 15, 2003 and Islami Tehreek Pakistan on Nov 15, 2003.

New Delhi: India's most wanted terrorist Dawood Ibrahim lives in Karachi's posh area where Pakistan's top officials along with top army personnel reside, according to DNA's exclusive report. All documents related to this expose is in the possession of Zee News.

At the centre of this revelation are the arrested close friends of Dawood Ibrahim in Britain between 2018 and 2019 on charges of money laundering. Among them, Aaron Alim Yusuf and Ranjit Singh Bindra were arrested in 2019, while the British police nabbed Jabir Motiwala, who looked after Dawood's international business in 2018.

The US investigative agency FBI also sought Zabir Motiwala whom Britain would soon hand over to America because Zabir was allegedly involved in drug racket and carried out money laundering. A UK lower court has already allowed the extradition of Zabir and he may soon be handed over to the US.

The DNA got the exclusive details about Dawood and his family from the interrogation reports of the close acquaintances of the don. He is not only in Pakistan but has also got the support of the Imran Khan government and its intelligence agencies.

The disclosure about underworld don and mastermind of 1993 Mumbai attacks has been made by Pakistan for the first time on August 18, when it issued a notification that Dawood Ibrahim was in Karachi. It also imposed a ban on him on the basis of this notification. Under these restrictions, all the bank accounts of Dawood Ibrahim were to be frozen along with putting a ban on his movements. This notification also included Dawood's address in Karachi, other fake names and details of his passport.

Pakistan submitted this list with Financial Action Task Force (FATF) to avoid its inclusion in the FATF's Black List. After three days, it refused to acknowledge that Dawood was in Pakistan after three days, and its Foreign Ministry on Saturday refuted all the reports, adding that the list was given to it by the United Nations.

Dawood Ibrahim's presence is also known to America that is why it had declared him an international terrorist. The United Nations is also aware of this fact, the reason, his name is included in the list of banned terrorists. Surprisingly, Dawood's name does not find mention in Pakistan's list of terrorists. Pakistan's National Counter Terrorism Authority that works under the supervision of Prime Minister Imran Khan seems to have deliberately avoided including Dawood's name the list terrorists.

The DNA report, however, will reveal all the details. For the first time, we will tell you about Dawood's family and show you passport details of his family members, besides the details of their bank accounts and properties.

Mahzbeen Sheikh also looks after Dawood's business and he runs his financial activities in her name. His 32-year-old son Moin Nawaz often travels to Dubai and London and looks after his father's smuggling, narcotics and hawala racket.

The ISI is reportedly trying to resolve the matter between the two.

Dawood's daughter-in-law, Sania Moin Sheikh, wife of Moin Nawaz, also lives at Dawood's house in Karachi and looks after his investments in London.

D Listed: Why Pakistan May Finally be Looking to Dump Dawood

Manoj Gupta

News18

August 24, 2020

The generals in Pakistan's all-powerful army have an arsenal of interests: involvement in corruption, other scandals, and running weapons and narcotics rackets are among them. To maintain their clout, they throw accusations at the civil governments as well as the politicians who are traditionally Punjabi businessmen.

And while these generals have learnt the art of doing business, the businessmen never learnt the art of war, so to speak.

Terrorist and underworld don Dawood Ibrahim's presence in Karachi was denied for almost 19 years by the Pakistan army. And on a yearly basis, India provides a dossier on him with passport numbers issued in Pakistan and addresses of his properties in Karachi.

Dawood was moving about like a normal, rich Pakistani citizen in Karachi up to 2016 but covert operations by Indian agencies put a stop to that. Now in 2020, his name has been added to the list of banned terrorists and uploaded on the website of Pakistan's ministry of foreign affairs. It was a major surprise not only for Dawood but chiefs of Indian agencies also got a major shock.

In our understanding, Dawood Ibrahim was blacklisted mainly because of three important reasons.

The D-Company is going through major financial crises. Individually Dawood and the Company may have money, but transactional business has stopped due to Covid-19. People around D-Company say they were hit by this and their legal businesses are almost on the verge of shutdown. The only option of trading in weapons and narcotics has also stopped due to pressure by the Indian government.

The 'grey list' issue is the second big problem where the Pakistani establishment is trying its best to clear its name and is ready to offer anything to make it go away. Imran Khan personally is not corrupt and strategically he understands his importance and available alternatives. Plus he knows his support and image in the cricketing world.

Reports are coming that there is a major rift between Imran Khan and army chief Qamar Javed Bajwa and we must accept that Imran is not taking pressure from any quarter or institution in this regard at this time.

The previous two parties that ruled, the PPP and PMLN, carry heavy baggage of their personal weakness, corruption, scandals, etc, and they don't stand a chance against the powerful institutions.

So, while there is no authentic information, we can say that Imran Khan disapproved of people like Dawood Ibrahim who are enjoying a good life and were living above the law.

Also, as we know that an individual, no matter how strong or important he or she is, is only temporary for the Pakistan army and subject to becoming a liability for the powers that be. The army didn't even spare its own Chief (Pervez Musharraf) or the beloved Mian Sahab.

So, yes, for the first time D-Company names have made front-page news in Pakistan media. And it is really very, very strange, and may perhaps signal a turning point in Pakistan's policy towards them.
