UN strikes through 1 Dawood address

After dropping three of the nine addresses provided by India, the UN Security Council’s ISIL and Al-Qaeda Sanctions Committee did not amend six of Dawood Ibrahim’s addresses mentioned in the listing — “Karachi, Pakistan (White House, Near Saudi Mosque, Clifton)”, “House Nu 37 — 30th Street — defence, Housing Authority, Karachi, Pakistan” and “Palatial bungalow in the hilly area of Noorabad in Karachi”.

The addresses were included in a dossier prepared by India in August last year that had listed nine residences in Pakistan of Dawood as evidence to show that he is holed up in Pakistan.

In the amendment, the Committee has stricken through the address “Main Property at Margalla Raod F-6/2 Street no.22, House No.07, Islamabad number 29 in Karachi. This address was later found to be similar to that of a residence belonging to Lodhi.”

When asked about the amendment, a top Indian official here told PTI that one address of Dawood in the listing entry was incorrect. The address was “of ambassador Maleeha Lodhi, and not Dawood Ibrahim”, the sources said. “The amendment also strikes through other addresses “8th Floor of Mehran Squa-re, near Pardesi House-3, Talwar Area, Clifton, Karachi, Pakistan” and “6/A Kjauabam Tanz-eem, Phase-5, Defence Hous-ing Araea, Kara-chi, Pakistan.”

The listing says Dawood has a Passport number A717288 issued on August 18, 1985 in Dubai and a Pakistani number G866537 issued on August 12, 1991 in Rawalpindi but adds the term “misuse” for these two passports. He has Passport number C-267185 issued in Karachi in July 1996 and Passport number H-123259 issued in Rawalpindi in July 2001.
