Live Updates: Tahawwur Rana, 26/11 Attacks Mastermind, Likely To Land In India Around 7 PM

Tahawwur Rana Extradition Live Updates: Mumbai terror attack case accused Tahawwur Hussain Rana, who is being extradited from the US, will land in India around 7 pm on Thursday, sources said. 

A key accused in the 26/11 attacks, Rana departed from the US on a special flight on Thursday, after his last-ditch attempt to evade extradition failed. A team of the National Investigation Agency and the Research and Analysis Wing is bringing the 64-year-old back. Security has been stepped up outside Delhi’s Patiala House Court where Rana is likely to be produced after his extradition, an official said.

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. 

Rana is a close associate of one of the main conspirators of the attacks, David Coleman Headley alias Daood Gilani, a US citizen.
