Underworld don Dawood Ibrahim has been hospitalised in Karachi, Pakistan, due to a severe health complication, sources said on Monday, 18 December, reports India Today.

Although several reports on social media have suggested poisoning as the cause, no official confirmation has been provided, as per information shared by one of his aides.

Dawood Ibrahim was admitted to the hospital two days ago, and sources reveal that he is under tight security, being the sole patient on his designated floor. Access to this floor is restricted to only top hospital authorities and his immediate family members, as per India Today.

The son of Haseena Parker, Dawood Ibrahim's sister, informed the National Investigating Agency (NIA) in January that the underworld don resides in Karachi after marrying for the second time, according to India Today.
