India, in a dossier, had cited these nine addresses in Pakistan as those frequented by Dawood, the mastermind of 1993 Mumbai serial blasts.
The Security Council’s ISIL and Al-Qaida Sanctions Committee amended its entry on Monday concerning Dawood with “underline and strikethrough”.
While six addresses provided by India have not been amended, three have been removed.
One of the three addresses which have been dropped by the Committee from its list was found similar to that of a residence of Islamabad’s envoy to the UN Maleeha Lodhi.
In the amendment, the Committee has stricken through the address “Main Property at Margalla Raod F- 6/2 Street no.22, House No.07, Islamabad number 29 in Karachi. This address was later found to be similar to that of a residence belonging to Lodhi.” When asked about the amendment, a top Indian official here told PTI that one address of Dawood in the listing entry was incorrect. The address was “of Ambassador Maleeha Lodhi, and not Dawood Ibrahim”, the sources said.
