Trump says US will extradite Mumbai 2008 Terror Attack suspect to India
|
[KhaamaPress] On Thursday, U.S. President Donald Trump
 ...The Hero of Butler, Pennsylvania...
announced that the United States would extradite a suspect involved in the deadly 2008 Mumbai attacks to India for trial.
| Ten terrorists rampaged through to the city and kept many hostage in various hotels and a Chabad House before killing 166, including the rabbi, his wife, and several of their children. The horror lasted nearly 60 hours before Mumbai police gunned down the bad guys. The lone surviving terrorist, Ajmal Kasab sang like a canary, was found guilty and subsequently hanged a few years later at a jail in Pune. |
Trump did not disclose the identity of the suspect but Rooters reported that the individual is a Canadian-Pak citizen. The U.S. president made the announcement after a meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the White House.
In a joint presser, Trump expressed his satisfaction in confirming the extradition of one of the criminal masterminds behind the horrific Mumbai terror attacks, stating that this person would face justice in India.
The 2008 Mumbai attacks, carried out by four gangs, targeted luxury hotels, train stations, and a Jewish center. The attack resulted in 166 deaths and over 300 injuries, lasting three days.
India has stated that the attacks were carried out by the Pakistain-based Lashkar-e-Taiba
...the Army of the Pure, an Ahl-e-Hadith terror organization founded by Hafiz Saeed. LeT masquerades behind the Jamaat-ud-Dawa facade within Pakistain and periodically blows things up and kills people in India. Despite the fact that it is banned , always an interesting concept in Pakistain, the organization remains an blatant tool and perhaps an arm of the ISI...>
group, though Pakistain denied involvement at the time. Reports indicate that the suspect being extradited is Tahawwur Rana, a Canadian-Pak businessman who was previously sentenced to 14 years in prison in the U.S. for supporting Lashkar-e-Taiba.
| Mr. Rana is accused by the Indian government of participating in the planning and execution of the Lashkar terrorist attacks in Mumbai by collaborating with his childhood friend David Coleman Headley, also known as "Daood Gilani," and others. He was convicted in 2011 of providing material support to Lashkar-e-Taiba, which planned the Mumbai terror attack and for supporting a never-carried-out plot to attack a Danish newspaper that printed cartoons of the Prophet Muhammed (PTUI!) in 2005. Specifically, he was accused of allowing David Coleman Headley to open a branch of his Chicago-based immigration law business in Mumbai as a cover story and to travel as a representative of the company in Denmark. So now, upon finishing his sentence here, he will get to trade the luxurious accommodations of an American federal prison for an Indian one. |
This move strengthens the U.S.-India relationship as both countries work together to combat terrorism. The extradition is a significant step in holding individuals accountable for their involvement in international terrorism, demonstrating a shared commitment to justice and security.
