A similar notice was also put up at Shabnam Guest House located in JJ Marg area, an official said. Dawood’s late sister Hasina Parker also used to stay in Damarwala Building. The Appellate Tribunal for Forfeited Property had declared the two properties “illegally acquired” and approved their takeover under SAFEMA Act. Kaskar was arrested in an extortion case in February 2015 and granted bail. A real estate agent, Mohammed Salim Shaikh, filed a complaint alleging that Kaskar and his men assaulted him and demanded Rs three lakh.
