Maharashtra Minister and NCP leader Nawab Malik were arrested by the ED in connection with the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. This came after Dawood Ibrahim’s brother Iqbal Kaskar allegedly revealed certain facts about his sister Haseena Parkar‘s involvement in usurping high-valued properties of innocent citizens in Mumbai.

Devendra Fadnavis had also made shocking revelations against the ruling Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government, yesterday in the Assembly and he had handed over proofs to the Assembly Speaker.
He was addressing protesters along with key BJP leaders at the Azad Maidan with the motto ‘Nawab Malik Hatao, Maharashtra Bachao’.
Devendra Fadnavis took to Twitter to share the visuals of the protest at Azan Maidan in Mumbai. He tweeted, “Mumbaikars are out on streets of Mumbai… They are angry, they are hurt. We demand Nawab Malik’s resignation! It’s clear Nawab Hatao Desh Bachao!”
