Dawood Ibrahim: Along with his wife, Dawood Ibrahim’s children also reside in Karachi, but his sister Haseena Parkar and some family members are in India. Dawood’s wife stays in touch with him. Pakistan has maintained complete silence about Dawood Ibrahim, but his nephew has admitted that Dawood’s health is delicate, mentioning various illnesses. He has spoken about Dawood Ibrahim having different health issues.

There is widespread discussion in many countries, including India, about the speculation of Dawood being administered poison at his home in Karachi. However, Pakistan remains completely silent on the matter. There has been no reaction from Pakistan on this issue. Pakistan seems to be turning a deaf ear to everything. In an attempt to suppress the case, no one is allowed to approach the hospital premises. No information from Pakistan is available regarding Dawood’s current condition. Relatives of Dawood living in Mumbai have provided information about his health.

According to a report from Times Now, a team from Mumbai Police has contacted Dawood’s Ibrahim family to obtain accurate information about his health. Several members of Dawood’s family also live in Mumbai. Dawood’s nephew in Mumbai has admitted to the police that Dawood’s health is not good. He mentioned that Dawood Ibrahim has been facing various problems for several days. However, he denied that Dawood had to be hospitalized due to poisoning.

Pakistan remains tight-lipped about Dawood Ibrahim

The hospital in Karachi where Dawood is admitted has strict security. Only security personnel and doctors are allowed on the floor where Dawood is kept. Pakistan is unwilling to disclose what has happened to Dawood. Dawood is practically a bone in their throat that they cannot swallow or spit out. Although Dawood has been living in Karachi for 30 years, Pakistan has never officially acknowledged him. If Pakistan now claims that Dawood was not poisoned, it would mean accepting that he is in Pakistan. Even if they talk about Dawood being poisoned or undergoing treatment, they would still have to acknowledge that Dawood is there. Hence, Pakistan has chosen to remain completely silent on this.

Dawood Ibrahim left India during the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts. It later emerged that Dawood was residing in Karachi, Pakistan. Despite evidence of Dawood being in Karachi, Pakistan has always denied sheltering him and has consistently dismissed claims of Dawood’s presence in Karachi.

Various speculations about Dawood’s death

In 2020, there were reports of the underworld don Dawood Ibrahim succumbing to the coronavirus in Pakistan.

In 2017, there were reports of Dawood suffering a heart attack, and he was admitted to the Aga Khan Hospital in critical condition. Treatment for a brain tumor was underway, and he was later put on a ventilator. After that, news of his death circulated. At that time, Dawood’s associate Chhota Shakeel had conveyed to an English newspaper on the phone that there was nothing to worry about, and Dawood was absolutely fine.
