Hyderabad exiles ‘Lady Don’ for alleged crimes
The city of Hyderabad is gearing up to exile an alleged woman mob boss known as the "Lady Don," India Today reports.
Under a law designed to "curb activities of a history-sheeter and maintain the peace and tranquillity of the city," Hyderabad police will compel the alleged gangster, 44-year-old Farah Khan aka Farah Fatima aka 'Lady Don' for allegedly threatening businessmen, extortion and arranging 'settlements', an euphemism for private resolution of disputes, many of them instigated by her, for a heavy price, the magazine said.
In all, Khan faces 12 cases, which include murder, Arms Act violations, criminal trespass, intimidation and extortion.
