Tahawwur Rana To Land In Delhi Today, Likely To Be Lodged In Tihar Jail: Reports

Rana is a Pakistan-born Canadian national and close associate of one of the main conspirators of the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks David Coleman Headley.

The Mumbai terror attack case accused Tahawwur Hussain Rana will reportedly land in Delhi today and is likely to be lodged in a high-security ward in Tihar jail after being extradited from the US.

Necessary preparations have been made for lodging him in jail, news agency PTI reported, quoting prison sources.

Rana is a Pakistan-born Canadian national and close associate of one of the main conspirators of the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks David Coleman Headley. Rana is being brought to India after his last-ditch attempt to evade extradition failed as the US Supreme Court justices rejected his application.

A multi-agency team has gone to the US to bring him to India.

On November 26, 2008, a group of 10 Pakistani terrorists went on a rampage, carrying out a coordinated attack on a railway station, two luxury hotels and a Jewish centre, after they sneaked into India's financial capital using the sea route in the Arabian Sea. As many as 166 people were killed in the nearly 60-hour assault.
