Tahawwur Rana, a key suspect in the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks, has lost his final legal battle in the U.S. with the Supreme Court clearing his extradition to India. Rana was implicated in aiding terrorist David Headley, who conducted surveillance for the deadly attacks that killed 166 people.
After years of legal challenges, including attempts to block his extradition, the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision marks a major victory for India in its pursuit of justice for the Mumbai victims. Rana’s extradition will bring him to India to face charges of conspiracy, murder, and terrorism.
Indian officials hailed the ruling, emphasizing stronger international cooperation in the fight against terrorism. This development sets the stage for Rana’s trial, which could shed more light on the network behind the 2008 attacks.
