Dawood’s whereabouts, denied stoutly and repeatedly by the Pakistani authorities, isn’t just wisdom on Pakmodia Street but also the stuff of police files.
The intelligence agencies had provided details of these 17 camps, along with information on the strength of recruits in each camp as well as the Pakistan Army formations directly supervising each camp, sources said. “Terrorism and dialogue can not go together”, he said.
In response, Abdul Basit, the Pakistani high commissioner to India, said: “The only thing I have to say about that gentleman [Ibrahim] is that he is not in Pakistan“.
Asked what was stopping Indian agencies to undertake such an operation, Singh said, “political determination and decision”.
The Indian agencies have also accessed Dawood’s new images available on Pakistani passports. The residential property has been purchased as it is strategically located close to Ziauddin Hospital, where Ibrahim could be taken for “medical treatment” as per his need.
There is an Interpol red corner notice against Dawood for his role in the 1993 blasts.
