Security expert Qamar Agha on Saturday urged the international community to mount pressure on Pakistan to arrest Dawood Ibrahim and hand him over to India.

"It is high time that Pakistan arrests him and hands over to India. There is a need for the international community to mount pressure on Pakistan to arrest him," Agha told ANI here.

Earlier this week, a western intelligence agency had revealed that it had taped a conversation between Dawood and a real estate agent of Dubai, which proves that the underworld don is based in Karachi.

Agha further said that Dawood was wanted both by India and the United States.

"Dawood has committed many crimes here in Mumbai and he was involved in the bomb blasts of the nineties. He is a major funder of the many known terrorist organizations based in Pakistan which are waging war against India. Dawood has been wanted not only by India but also by the American government, he has been dubbed as a terrorist," he said.

According to reports a series of never heard before tapes have been accessed from a website Newsmobile.in giving an insight into the life of Dawood Ibrahim.

While Pakistan continues to deny the whereabouts of Dawood, based on months of surveillance mounted on the underworld don Islamabad's lie appears to have been nailed. The tapes have reportedly been procured from western diplomatic sources and it is being established that Dawood is running his business empire around the globe with impunity.
