Former Minister Salim Miya Ansari’s son Yunus Ansari, having links with Dawood Ibrahim is the most well-protected prisoner in Lalitpur's Nakkhu Jail, located 9 km away from Kathmandu's Tribhuvan International Airport, reports Outlook on June 8. Chairman of the defunct National TV group, Yunus Ansari faces trial for running an organised crime syndicate involved in smuggling of high quality Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN). The crime syndicate led by him partners with D-company in Nepal. In a recent development, Yunus Ansari is also suspected of smuggling arms for Kashmiri militants through his underground network linked with Pakistan's spy agency Inter-Service Intelligence (ISI). In a bid to restrict his underworld activities, Yunus Ansari was recently shifted from Kathmandu's Central prison to Nakkhu Jail, where he is lodged in Block C barrack, meant for dreaded terrorists and criminals. In May 2019, Nepalese Police arrested four people including Yunus Ansari and three Pakistani nationals - Muhammad Akhtar (passport number: AA134594), Nadia Anwar (passport number: CN1812032), and Nasir Uddin (passport number: AR2406432) at immigration desk of the Tribhuvan International Airport, after they arrived from Qatar with five suitcases, loaded with FICN with the face value of INR 7 crore. Later, it was revealed that Akhtar, Anwar and Nasiruddin were ISI operatives and the consignment of FICN smuggled by Yunus Ansari, originated from Karachi. The accused arrived in Kathmandu via Qatar only to camouflage their shady operation. Besides the 2019 case, Yunus Ansari was booked in another case of FICN in 2014, in which FICN brought by ISI operatives in Nepal was seized from his possession.
