The United States declared Dawood Ibrahim a “global terrorist” in 2003 and pursued the matter before the United Nations in an attempt to freeze his assets around the world and crack down on his operations as he is believed to maintain close links with al-Qaeda's Osama Bin Laden.
The Bush administration has imposed several sanctions on Dawood Ibrahim and his associates. Indian and Russian intelligence agencies have pointed out Ibrahim's possible involvement in several other terror attacks.
The 2002 Indian film Company is loosely based on his activities, as well as its prequel, the 2005 film D.
Other Indian crime films loosely based on Ibrahim and his D-Company include Black Friday in 2004, Shootout at Lokhandwala in 2007, Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai in 2010 , Shootout at Wadala and D-Day in 2013.
