In a money laundering case registered by ED
A special court in Mumbai on Wednesday issued a production warrant against gangster Dawood Ibrahim’s brother Iqbal Kaskar in a money laundering case registered by the Enforcement Directorate (ED). The special Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) court issued the warrant and directed the Taloja Central Jail authorities to produce Kaskar from the prison after ED’s counsel Hiten Venegavkar urged the court to do so. On Tuesday, the Central agency conducted raids in 10 locations in Mumbai on properties belonging to Kaskar.
The case dates back to an FIR registered in the Kasarvadavli police station against Kaskar, Mumtaz Shaikh and Israr Ali Jamil Sayyed under the provisions of the Indian Penal Code. They were arrested on September 9, 2017 for forcibly extorting one flat and ₹90 lakh as protection money from builder Suresh Jain.
