City people throng Banjara house of Hasan Ali

Saturday, March 17, 2007, 18:48 [IST]

Hyderabad, Mar 9 (UNI) Curious Hyderabadis today thronged the house of horse trader Hassan Ali Khan here, a day after Income Tax and Enforcement Directorate officials raided his residences in Pune and Bombay for allegedly having unaccounted wealth of Rs 35,000 crore.

Photographers and media personnel made a beeline to the house of Khan at Road number one of Banjara hills, a posh locality in the city.

However, his wife Meherunnisa Begum, who stays in the house, claimed that she had divorced him in 1999 and showed the divorce papers to media personnel.

Khan, originally a small businessman in the city, made it big after shifting to Pune.

Income Tax officials here said they had no information, as the raids were conducted by Pune officials.
