The US Supreme Court rejected the petition of Tehwavur Rana to stop India’s extradition. Sources said that the National Investigation Agency (NIA) will bring the mastermind of 26/11 to India to India. It is not clear whether he will be brought to Delhi or Mumbai.
Sources said that he is likely to land in Mumbai, where the plan of 26/11 was carried out. Sources also said that he will spend the first few weeks in NIA custody. Rana is an accused in the 2008 Mumbai attack, in which 157 people were killed.
How did Tahwwur Rana get the way to bring India clear?
The US court rejected his petition to stop his extradition in India. The US Supreme Court rejected Rana’s application, demanding a ban on extradition of India. This application was presented before Chief Justice John Roberts. On 27 February, the Supreme Court’s Associate Justice and the Ninth Circuit Circuit Justice Elena Kagan presented the ’emergency application to stop the pending trial of the habeas corpus petition’.
Rana was going on tricks to stop extradition
Earlier, Rana was demanding to stop his extradition and surrender to India to the litigation (including ending of all the appeals) on the basis of the merits and dedication of his petition filed on 13 February. He argued that India is a violation of the American law and the United Nations anti -torture convention, as it is in danger of torture in India. However, the court did not accept these arguments.
Trump approved extradition after meeting with PM Modi
India had said on 7 March that it is working closely with the US to complete the formalities required for Rana’s extradition. US President Donald Trump approved Rana’s extradition after a meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Washington last month.
