    Who was Karim Lala? The underworld don Sanjay Raut mentioned

    Senior Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on Wednesday claimed that former prime minister Indira Gandhi used to come to meet yesteryear don Karim Lala in Mumbai. Recalling days of the underworld in Mumbai, Raut, who was earlier a journalist, said gangsters like Dawood Ibrahim, Chhota Shakeel and Sharad Shetty used to have control over the metropolis and adjoining areas. They used to decide who will be the police commissioner, who will sit in 'Mantralaya' (secretariat), Raut said. The Sena leader also claimed that he had once rebuked Dawood Ibrahim.

    "When Haji Mastan used to come to 'Mantralaya', the entire 'Mantralaya' would komma down to see him. Indira Gandhi used to come to meet Karim Lala in Pydhonie (in south Mumbai)," claimed Raut, whose party formed a coalition government with the NCP and Congress in Maharashtra last year.

    Shabir Ibrahim Kaskar (died 12 February ) was a notorious Indian criminal based in Mumbai. He was the elder brother of Dawood Ibrahim, the current gang leader of the D-Company.
