NEW DELHI: Tahawwur Rana who was extradited from the United States (US) to India is being probed in connection with the Mumbai 26/11 attacks case. Rana was a key accomplice of David Headley, who carried out the reconnaissance of the targets in Mumbai which were hit by the Lashkar-e-Tayiba exactly 17 years ago. Officials who are part of the probe say that Rana’s interrogation has been a tricky one.
One would have imagined that he would divulge information easily and the interrogation would not drag on for months.
However, owing to his training by the Pakistan Army and then the ISI, he is good at dodging questions.
Rana was a former military doctor with the Pakistan Army. He was then roped into the ISI and told to operate from Canada. He was the one who prepared the travel documents and also made other arrangements for David Headley when he visited India.
