New Delhi, Sep 23 (IANS) The Congress on Saturday demanded that the Narendra Modi government explain how absconding don Dawood Ibrahim’s wife managed to visit Mumbai last year undetected and said that it raises questions on the credibility of the Centre and Maharashtra government as well as the state and central security agencies.
Congress Rajya Sabha leader Rajiv Shukla termed the matter as very serious and said that it raises question on the credibility of the central and state government as well as the central investigative agencies.
“Dawood’s wife Mehajabin Shaikh came to India in 2016 for 15 days. What was Mumbai Police doing? What were the central and Maharashtra government doing? What were the other agencies doing?” he asked.
“It is a very serious issue. It is like ‘diya tale andhera’ (darkness under a lamp — or something taking place right under your nose). The state government, Mumbai Police and all the central agencies should answer how it happened, as it raises questions on their credibility,” he added.
