Mumbai Police reported on Saturday that Tahawwur Rana, a key conspirator in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks, is not cooperating. His answers have been evasive, making the investigation more difficult.

Police Interrogate Rana in Delhi

Mumbai Police's Crime Branch interrogated Rana at his detention facility in Delhi. They questioned him for eight hours about the 2008 attacks, which killed over 166 people.

Focus on Terrorist Networks

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) is examining Rana’s connections to Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and the Pakistani intelligence agency ISI. Investigators are also asking about individuals mentioned in intercepted communications, such as Abdur Rehman Hashim Syed, Sajjid Majid, Illyas Kashmiri, and Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi.

Rana’s Lack of Memory

Rana, a former Pakistan Army officer, claims he cannot remember key details about the 26/11 attack. His inability to recall important events raises doubts about his involvement.

Accused of Conspiracy

Rana is accused of conspiring with David Coleman Headley and other LeT and HuJI operatives. They planned the deadly attack in Mumbai with help from Pakistan-based co-conspirators.

Rana’s Extradition and Arrest

Rana, 64, was living in Chicago before his extradition to India. He was flown from Los Angeles to New Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport. On April 11, the NIA arrested him and placed him in 18 days of custody.

Ongoing Investigation

Rana’s arrest marks a significant step in India’s quest to hold those responsible for the Mumbai attacks accountable. The investigation continues to uncover details of the conspiracy behind this horrific event.
