Born in Dongri, Mumbai, Dawood Ibrahim also carries a reward of 25 million dollars on his head and is on the wanted list since 1994.
It is not just terrorism that he is charged with. There is a long list in which his criminal activities have been noted. They include murder, extortion, targeted killing, drug trafficking and various other cases.
It is further interesting to note that it was in 2011 that he was named number three on "The World's 10 Most Wanted Fugitives.”
