Dawood Ibrahim not in Pakistan, says Musharraf

Former president General (r) Pervez Musharraf said on Wednesday that he could not confirm whether Indian underworld don Dawood Ibrahim was hiding in Pakistan. In an interview with Indian TV channel NDTV, Musharraf also said Ibrahim, who tops India’s most-wanted list, is held in “high esteem” by many in his country. “They think that he did a very good job… Because Indians killed 3,000 Gujaratis. In Gujarat they killed 3,000 Muslims. Therefore Dawood Ibrahim reacted. So he is held in high esteem. This is what happens in Pakistan,” said Musharraf.
India believes Ibrahim masterminded the 1993 serial blasts in Mumbai. Pakistani officials have always denied that he lives in Karachi, though he is widely known to own a huge house that is in a posh part of the city.
Sources in the Indian Home Ministry refused to comment on record on Musharraf’s comments. They say they continue to believe that Ibrahim is based in Pakistan and uses multiple passports for international travel. Former Indian home secretary GK Pillai, however, said: “I think he (Musharraf) in one sense has betrayed himself by saying that Dawood was responsible for the attacks in India. That itself shows that the Pakistani establishment knew very well what they were doing.”
