India Today reported that Laal Mohammad allegedly smuggled counterfeit currency into India from Pakistan, using routes via Bangladesh and Nepal.
It added that aside from his relationship with the ISI, he was also suspected of having connections with underworld gangster Dawood Ibrahim’s D-Company, responsible for the deadly 1993 bomb blasts in Mumbai.
