Reports Of UAE Government Seizing Dawood Property Are Baseless: Intelligence Sources

[Areesh]

NEW DELHI -- Reports of the United Arab Emirates government seizing fugitive Dawood Ibrahim's property are incorrect, intelligence sources told HuffPost India. The Bharatiya Janata Party had tweeted on Wednesday evening that after the Modi government's sustained efforts, the UAE had clamped down on Dawood and seized his property worth 15 thousand crore rupees.


According to the BJP, which interestingly cited "media reports" while making the claim, the alleged action by the UAE government was a direct result of Prime Minister Modi's efforts, who had brought up the issue of Dawood's property during his official tour to UAE in 2015. PM Modi had reportedly asked the government to investigate the matter, and this was the logical fallout of that investigation, claimed BJP.


However, government sources told HuffPost India that this was untrue, and no such property has been seized so far. Efforts to get a statement from the UAE Ambassador in India were met with no response. Most media houses reporting the alleged seizure of property have referred to either unnamed "reports" or the BJP's tweet on the matter.

Zee News was the first Indian news organisation to report the story, quickly followed by ABP New. Both published a story detailing the UAE government's alleged crackdown on Dawood on Tuesday, a day before BJP sent out an official tweet. The ABP story only cited "reports". Other news agencies were quick to follow the story, relying on either the ABP report, or the BJP's tweet. Meanwhile others reported that the government were "unaware" of the development.

Really, so this the way to take all credit, therefore, it is said that do not take every media word as reality as it could be some sort of feed for self praise. As we can see, elections are near so IMO, there will be flood of such types of news that mostly be mentioning doctored or hyped anti-Pakistan achievements to gain the sympathy and votes.

Or may be opposition trolled BJP firstly that too by mentioning Dawood, that has a prominent impact in India, to take this as an achievement and then hammered the credibility by spoiling the party. Let's see what officials have to say now......

The reports are not baseless. They have a base at:

11 Ashoka Road, New Delhi - 110001

Let's see what BJP has to say in this after taking the credit for a year or they will declare the quoted source as false.

Bhaio'n behno'n bhaio'n behno'n bhaio'n or behno'n, Diplomatic stroke proved to be a sun stroke!


Besides all that hate rhetoric which Indians usually spew against the Arabs, UAE is a filling station for the Indian strategic oil reserves and their prince is scheduled to attend the Indian republic day as a chief guest to further their military and economic cooperation ------- so, what in the God's Holy Name , Indian don had been cooking in the U.A.E and with whose leave and licence?

Looks like that was another surgical strike of bhatiya sarkar to massage the ultra micro egos of her bhakats. Or maybe to give relief from the effects of the nasbandi I mean notebandi.
