In a significant breakthrough in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks probe, the NIA has secured 18-day custody of extradited accused Tahawwur Hussain Rana for further interrogation.
After a prolonged legal battle,the NIA has successfully extradited 26/11 Mumbai attacks accused Tahawwur Rana from the United States. He arrived in Delhi after a lengthy legal battle spanning several years. Upon landing at Palam Technical Airport, he was escorted under tight security. Rana will now face investigation and trial under charges including terrorism and waging war against India.
The US Supreme Court rejected an emergency plea by Tahawwur Rana, an accused in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, seeking to block his extradition to India. Rana had opposed his transfer, but the court dismissed his request. With this decision, his extradition process moves forward. India has been pursuing his return to face trial.
