After Chhota Shakeel, the Thane police in Maharashtra have booked underworld don Dawood Ibrahim and his brother Anees Ibrahim in an extortion racket.
The development comes a fortnight after Dawood's brother Iqbal Kaskar and two of his aides -- Mumtaz Sheikh and Israr Ali Jamil Sayyad -- were arrested by the Anti-Extortion Cell (AEC) of the Thane police, led by 'encounter specialist' Pradeep Sharma and his team, in an extortion case of Rs 30 lakh and four flats from a builder.
Dawood and Anees have been named as a wanted accused in the extortion case that was registered on Tuesday.
Thane police have booked Kaskar and his gang members in a fresh case of extorting Rs 3 crore from a prominent builder in north Mumbai. This is the third extortion case registered against Kaskar and his gang members after their arrest.
Chhota Shakeel, whose role had also emerged in the extortion racket case, had already been declared a wanted accused.
