In a joint operation carried out by a team of Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) and Lucknow police, the Dawood gang member, Tariq Parveen, was arrested from Mumbai late Monday after a tip-off.

Lucknow Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Yashashwi Yadav said the Special Task Force (STF) had arrested Azeez-ud-din, a Pune resident, and Aqeel Ahmed of Lucknow in 1999 with a major consignment of arms and ammunition that included an AK-47 and 96 live cartridges.
