Meanwhile, Mumbai police officials are waiting for Joshi and Dhariwal to return to the country so that they can be questioned about their links with Dawood Ibrahim and Anis Ibrahim Kaskar.
The two, who are in Dubai right now, allegedly helped Ibrahim set up a gutkha manufacturing company in Karachi. Dawood is said to be generating a huge income from the company.
