| India has urged Nepal to investigate possible links between a Nepali media group and New Delhi's most-wanted fugitive, who also appears on a US list of terrorists, and freeze the firm's assets under a UN mandate. Indian Foreign Ministry spokesman Navtej Sarna referred reporters to a story in India's Hindustan Times daily on Monday which said the Indian embassy in Kathmandu had passed on credible information that crime boss Dawood Ibrahim had a stake in Nepal's Space Time Network. Information about links between Dawood Ibrahim and the Kathmandu-based media group were given by New Delhi as part of an "ongoing cooperation with Nepal on issues related to terrorism", Sarna said. India accuses Ibrahim of masterminding a wave of bombings in its financial hub, Bombay, in 1993 that killed 260 people and injured some 1,000. Washington has named Ibrahim, the son of an Indian police constable, on its global terrorist list, linking him to Al Qaeda. |
