UK's latest financial sanctions list includes Dawood, with four addresses in Karachi

Though Pakistan has consistently denied that it is harbouring Dawood Ibrahim, an accused in the 1993 Bombay blasts case and one of India's most wanted terrorists, the UK's latest list of financial sanctions targets includes the underworld don and four addresses for him in Karachi, reports The Hindu.

The UK Treasury Department's latest 'Consolidated List of Financial Sanctions Targets in the UK' which was updated on 27 January, lists Dawood Ibrahim as an Indian citizen with residences in House No 37, 30th Street - Defence, Housing Authority, Karachi, Pakistan; House no. 29, Margalla Road, F 6/2 Street no. 22, Karachi, Pakistan; Noorabad, Karachi, Pakistan; and White House, Near Saudi Mosque, Clifton, Karachi, Pakistan.

The list includes a string of Indian and Pakistani passports held by the don ever since his original passport was revoked by India, which has an international arrest warrant out for him.

The UK's financial sanctions can freeze assets of individuals or entities, as well as prohibit the transfer of funds to a sanctioned country, freeze the assets of a government and the corporate entities and residents of a target country.
