Tahawwur Hussain Rana, a Pakistani-born Canadian and 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks co-conspirator, was extradited to India from the US. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said, “I’m glad that day has come,” praising the move as a step toward justice for the 166 victims, including 6 Americans. Rana was transferred to India’s NIA after exhausting legal options. He allegedly aided childhood friend David Headley in Lashkar-e-Taiba’s plot. India charged him with murder, conspiracy, and terrorism. The US Justice Department called the extradition crucial in prosecuting Rana, previously jailed in the US for supporting LeT and plotting terror in Denmark. (PC: PTI)
