Former IPS officer YP Singh on Saturday said that the photographs of Dawood Ibrahim published in newspapers are not enough to prove that he is in Pakistan as the 'evidences are frivolous in nature'.

"With Pakistan rejecting India's claim of Dawood being in Pakistan in past also, the evidences from the Indian side is very frivolous in nature and it won't prevail upon Pakistan to accept that he (Dawood) is there," Singh told ANI.

"For making a person believe that Dawood is in Pakistan on requires more evidences than just a photograph because no one knows about the authenticity of these photographs," he added.

A newspaper has published a recent picture of Dawood Ibrahim, 59, and reports that Indian intelligence agencies have documentary evidence that the terrorist, along with his wife and children, has been living in Karachi's Clifton Road, an upscale neighbourhood.

Singh further said that these types of evidences could create a public opinion but doesn't make it a legally convincing case.
