The Enforcement Directorate (ED) filed an FIR after trespassers entered and interfered with a flat in Thane (West) attached in 2022 during a money laundering probe against Iqbal Kaskar, brother of fugitive underworld don Dawood Ibrahim. The flat, linked to extortion allegations, had its possession notice removed and lock tampered with.
