Shakeel used to operate from Pakistan and as far as I know, he left India in 1995-96 and since then he is in Pakistan,” indiatoday.in quoted Qureshi’s statement to ED.

The indiatoday.in report added Qureshi as telling ED: “I am not in touch with Shakeel now but was in touch with him till 2006, as he is my relative. After that, I never spoke to him because of his illegal activities. I also visited his home in Pakistan three to four times between 2000 and 2006. That time, Shakeel used to reside in Phase 5, Defense Area, Clifton, Karachi.”

Qureshi also revealed that Shakeel used to work for Ibrahim and they lived near Ghazi Shah Peer Mazar in Clifton, Karachi.
