Mumbai: Interrogation of Dawood Ibrahim Kaskar’s associate Salim Qureshi alias Salim Fruit has led investigators to a gold mine of information pertaining to the whereabouts of the designated global terrorist’s family members.
The statements of Dawood’s nephew Alishah Ibrahim Parkar and brother-in-law Saud Yusuf Tungekar shed light on the Kaskar family of seven brothers and five sisters with their children and grandchildren.
Salim Qureshi’s wife Sazia also spilled the beans on several secret visits to Pakistan via Dubai and Riyadh by Pakistan Airlines to attend engagements and weddings of Dawood’s close aide Chhota Shakeel’s daughters.
As per statements recorded with the National Investigation Agency in August 2022, Parkar and Tungekar were directly involved in the Saifee Burhani Upliftment Trust (SBUT) redevelopment projects bagging lucrative demolition contracts using fear of the underworld to get old tenants evicted. Both claim to be businessmen and in touch with Dawood’s first wife Mahezabin on WhatsApp. However, the SBUT has repeatedly denied any underworld connection.
