‘Patriotic’ don
“I have been involved in fighting against terrorists and those anti-India forces who are bent upon to damage our country and kill innocent citizens... I cannot take the name of persons who have helped me or to whom I have extended help in the fight against terrorism in national interest... When the henchmen of Dawood Ibrahim came to know that I am supplying information to Indian agencies in respect of Mumbai blasts perpetrators, they snatched my original passport from me in Dubai. They tried to kill me but somehow, I was able to escape from Dubai and reached Malaysia.

“Thereafter, I went to Bangkok where an attempt on my life was made in 2000 by the henchmen of Dawood. That is why, I was provided with a passport in the name of Mohan Kumar,” he told the special court.

Claiming that after the Mumbai bomb blasts, he decided to take revenge and help Indian intelligence agencies, he said, “Since 1993 I have been working constantly for my country and fighting those persons who want to damage our country.”
