Having a stern call against terrorism, India demanded the UN Security Council to take action against mafia don-turned terrorist Dawood Ibrahim and his D-Company terror organisation. This was after it attained success in getting Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) chief Masood Azhar listed as a global terrorist.
Addressing in the UN session, India’s Permanent Representative Syed Akbaruddin also called Dawood a “real and present danger”. Dawood has been working with Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and has been accused of pumping fake Indian currency in the country apart from handling ISI’s illegal drugs business.
The D-Company smuggles fake currency notes through various border-states like Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, Rajasthan and Gujarat.
