Dhurandhar: Rehman Dakait's 2009 Murder of Dawood Ibrahim's Brother

  • The film "Dhurandhar" has brought renewed attention to the alleged 2009 murder of Dawood Ibrahim's brother, Noor ul Haq, by gangster Rehman Dakait.
  • Indian intelligence agencies link Rehman Dakait, the inspiration for Akshaye Khanna's character, to the abduction, torture, and shooting of Noor ul Haq.
  • Noor ul Haq's body was reportedly dumped near Dawood Ibrahim's Karachi residence as a direct message, despite family claims of cardiac arrest.
  • Rehman Dakait was a feared gang leader in Karachi's Lyari, involved in extortion, contract killings, and drug trafficking, before being killed in a 2009 police encounter.

Why It Matters: A new film unearths a brutal real-life gang war, challenging a major don in Karachi.
