The Russian intelligence has said that underworld don Dawood Ibrahim was involved in the terror attacks in Mumbai on 26/11.
Dawood's drug network was used to finance the terror attacks, said the Russian intelligence, adding that he provided logistical support for the attacks.
As per earlier reports, Dawood's henchman, suspected to be a Colaba-based businessman, handed over arms and explosives to Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) militants for carrying out attacks in Mumbai, in what is emerging as the first major joint operation by the Karachi-based gangster and the banned outfit, official sources said in Mumbai.
Ajmal Amin, the only militant arrested during the operation, told interrogators that the dozen ultras who sailed from Karachi had come to Sasool dock from where they were taken first to Cuff Parade and later to Gateway of India in boats arranged by a frontman of Dawood, who runs several custom clearing houses in Mumbai, sources had claimed.
As per the results of the initial investigations into the attack, Mumbai police had said that the involvement of underworld don Dawood Ibrahim could not be ruled out.
