Where Is Karachi Biography
Source (google.com.pk)A new biography of Dawood Ibrahim, the gangland figure from Mumbai who is wanted in India on various charges, says he is leading a prisoner-like life in Karachi.
The Pakistani authorities have repeatedly denied such allegations.
‘The Most Dangerous Man in the World,’ which is what author Gilbert King has chosen to name his “unauthorised” biography, said in an interview published in India Abroad, the New York-based journal, that Mr Ibrahim is not allowed to move freely. After his expulsion from UAE, no country other than Pakistan was willing to accord him asylum. “But his power and capability in the underworld remain undiminished; he can still do what he wants,” the author claimed.
While the book may make the author some money, it is bound to be attacked for its many mistakes. It alleges that Mr Ibrahim and the ISI have been partners since 1993 when the gangland leader agreed to an ISI suggestion that India should be struck for permitting the demolition of the Babri Mosque at Ayodhya. The book says the mosque was located in Bombay. It also calls it “the Babri Masjid mosque.” The author believes that Mr Ibrahim is as dangerous as Osama Bin Laden though few in the West know him. He has set himself the task of “introducing” the Indian fugitive to the West through his book.
Mr King is by profession a fashion photographer whose work has appeared in Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar and Cosmopolitan. He came to Bombay to write a book on the movie industry but says everywhere he went he ran into the name Dawood Ibrahim. He got curious and in the end decided to write a book. The author took one year to write it but never visited India or Pakistan during this period, nor has he interviewed Mr Ibrahim or any of his companions or friends. He never spoke to police officials in Bombay either who have several thick dossiers on Mr Ibrahim’s alleged and proven deeds.
The book tries to connect the killing in Karachi of Daniel Pearl, the Wall Street Journal reporter, to Mr Ibrahim. The author’s theory is that the American reporter was trying to ferret out information about Mr Ibrahim whom the author gives the title of the “King of Karachi”. Mr Ibrahim was alarmed and had Mr Pearl kidnapped and killed. No one had so far linked the Pearl murder to the Indian underground figure. Mr Ibrahim is also credited with having a hand in opium smuggling from Afghanistan which is said to account for 75 percent of the world’s drug supply.

A visit to the facility shows a pool has been constructed which is about 85 metres long, 50 metres wide and has a depth of 15 metres. The pool water is being filtered round the clock. A whale from Moscow recently arrived for the show is being looked after by three experts, a trainer,...

A visit to the facility shows a pool has been constructed which is about 85 metres long, 50 metres wide and has a depth of 15 metres. The pool water is being filtered round the clock. A whale from Moscow recently arrived for the show is being looked after by three experts, a trainer, a vet and an expert on water engineering who kept a check on the pool condition. The adorable whale seemed to have a small injury on its beak and makes a lot of noise.
The pool contains tap water but that has been turned into marine one by adding different chemicals. Its temperature is also regulated according to the mammals’ needs and about Rs10m had been spent on the construction of the entire structure that included seating arrangements for 2,500 to 3,000 people. It will be the first time that a dolphin show is being held in this part of the world though it is very common in Singapore, Dubai and United States.
The show is being organized in collaboration with a Dubai-based company, Dolphin and I.
As for the Mumbai don’s future, the author says for now he is safe in Pakistan but his fate could be affected on account of the close cooperation that exists between the US and Pakistan in the war against terrorism. He is not worried about a backlash from Mr Ibrahim’s men because of the book. “I don’t expect any problems in the future either,” he asserted.
