Dongri to Dubai is not only a narrative of the rise and rise of Daewood Ibrahim, the number one mafia on the hit list of India Police but also a detailed description of how the government has failed again and again in its policies to capture and bring him back. S Hussain Zaidi is the best crime reporter the country has ever produced and in this book he has covered in details the growth of Mumbai Mafia, their rivalries and how Daewood used the fallacies of the Indian Judicial system.
The book covers the rise of underworld dons from each and every probable area of the city and how a small and humble beginning of Daewood had actually pushed him to the art of making easier money through crime and its related activities.
Its a very good read with point to point details of the underworld gangs spanning from the city of Mumbai and ending in Karachi, through Dubai
