This attempt was to allegedly layer and launder the proceeds of international drug trafficking syndicate that he was operating with his brothers Mohammed Saleem and Mydeen Gani; the latter incidentally was launched as a hero by Sadiq in an under-production film 'Iraivan Miga Periyavan', directed by Ameer Sulthan.
