The Thane anti-extortion cell (AEC) on Monday apprehended younger brother of wanted criminal Dawood Ibrahim.
According to reports, Iqbal Kaskar, Dawood's sibling was arrested by former encounter specialist Pradeep Sharma following charges of extortion.
Reportedly, Kaskar was nabbed against a complaint given by a builder who was facing extortion threat.
The builder was under huge debt post demonization and hence decided to reach out to the police for help.
Police picked up Kaskar from his Mumbai residence.
Reportedly, Kaskar had been threatening builders on behalf of Dawood and was demanding huge extortion money.
