Abu Salem Wedding

Mid-day's expose on dreaded underworld don Abu Salem living it up on train journeys for court hearings to Delhi and Lucknow has given the police an opportunity to open their investigation, which had hit a wall, into reports of the gangster's marriage with Mumbra resident Sayyed Bahaar Kausar.

He's been in prison since his extradition to India from Portugal. His partner then Monica Bedi has left him. But for underworld don Abu Salem life is more riveting than a Bollywood script. He has now consented to marriage with a woman who filed an application in a court to allow the don to marry her.

An anti-terror court in Maharashtra has ordered an investigation into reports that alleged gangster Abu Salem, an accused in the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts, married on a train while being taken by the police to Uttar Pradesh for a court hearing.
