India Wins Big: US Court Approves Extradition Of 26/11 Accused Tahawwur Rana
The US court’s approval for the extradition of Tahawwur Rana to India is a significant victory for the country, and a major blow to terrorism. Rana, a Pakistani-origin Canadian businessman, is accused of playing a key role in the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks that killed 166 people, including six Americans. *Ujjwal Nikam*, the special public prosecutor in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks case, has hailed the US court’s decision as a “great victory for India”.
The US court’s ruling has paved the way for Rana’s extradition to India, where he will face trial for his alleged involvement in the terror attacks. The Indian government had filed a complaint seeking Rana’s provisional arrest with a view towards extradition in June 2020. The Biden administration had supported India’s request, and the US court has now given its nod for Rana’s extradition.
Rana’s extradition is a significant development in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks case, and is seen as a major diplomatic success for India. The country has been pushing for Rana’s extradition for several years, and the US court’s decision is a major victory for India’s efforts to bring the perpetrators of the terror attacks to justice.
The *National Investigation Agency (NIA)* is conducting a probe into Rana’s role in the 26/11 attacks, and will now initiate proceedings to bring him to India through diplomatic channels. Rana’s extradition is expected to be a major breakthrough in the case, and will help India to finally bring the perpetrators of the terror attacks to justice .
