Fugitive gangster Dawood Ibrahim Kaskar has been declared as a terrorist in ‘individual capacity’, and therefore, any association with him on the pretext that a person belongs to D-gang / Dawood gang will not attract the provisions of Section 20, which prescribes punishment for being the member of a terrorist gang or organisation, the Bombay High Court has said.
The high court made the observation while granting bail to two persons — Parvez Vaid and Faiz Bhiwandiwala — who were arrested by the Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) in August 2022 for allegedly being a member of the D-Gang and were booked under various sections of the stringent Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act [UAPA] and the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act [NDPS].
On a tip-off, the ATS had arrested the duo and booked them under sections 17, 18 – providing funds to a terrorist organisation, conspiring or attempting to commit a terrorist act, respectively – and section 20 of the UAPA. While nothing was seized from Vaid, the ATS had seized 600 grams of ganja from Bhiwandiwala.
