Rana reportedly told Headley that the nine LeT terrorists killed during the attack “should be given the Nishan-e-Haider,” Pakistan’s highest military honour awarded posthumously for battlefield valor.
Rana is a close associate of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorist David Coleman Headley, who is wanted in India for his role in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks.
In a submission before the US District Court, Central District of California in Los Angeles, the Biden administration has argued that the extradition request filed by Indians have necessary evidence on each of the criminal charges for which India seeks Rana's extradition.
During a cross examination in the Mumbai court via video conferencing from the US, Headley had confessed to organising a fund raising programme for Shiv Sena.
