Remember Abu Salem who was in Hyderabad along with actress Monica Bedi on a passport forgery case? The gangster was on Wednesday sentenced to life imprisonment by special TADA court for murder of Mumbai-based builder Pradeep Jain in 1995.

The special public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam says that the special TADA court found Abu Salem guilty in Pradeep Jain murder case and ordered life imprisonment for him.

A former associate of wanted terrorist and mafia don Dawood Ibrahim Kaskar, the 47-year-old Salem is currently lodged in Taloja Central Jail, Raigad district. In the Jain murder trial, Nikam had initially demanded death penalty, which he later converted to a life sentence owing to conditions of the extradition treaty between India and Portugal.
