India reaches out to Interpol to trace Dawood Ibrahim’s sidekick

India’s National Investigation Agency has approached the Interpol to trace Dawood Ibrahim's aide Javed Patel alias Javed Chikna in Pakistan. The aim is to arrest and hand him over to India.

The anti-terror probe agency has got Interpol to issue a red corner notice against Javed Chikna along with another D Company member based out of South Africa - Zahid Miyan Sheikh alias 'Jao'. This is apparently in connection to the probe into the conspiracy to attack BJP and RSS leaders last year.

Chikna’s is a name that appears among the list of 48 most wanted criminals that India shared with Pakistan and sought arrest.

Sources say a Letter Rogatory, a judicial request seeking investigation assistance, is also being sent to Pakistan to get details about Javed Chikna.

The agency also plans to approach Dubai at a later stage.
