Rana has been accused of playing a role in laying groundwork for attacks – not as a trigger -spular, but as an ambassador in the shade.

According to an official statement by the US Department of Justice, after the Mumbai attacks, Rana allegedly stated that the victims “deserved” and praised the attackers, claiming that he was entitled to Pakistan’s highest military honors, Nishan-e-Hyder.
In 2009, Rana was arrested on allegations related to a separate late-linked plot, in which a Danish newspaper was targeted, publishing cartoons of Prophet Muhammad. In 2013, an American court convicted Rana to support Rana and sentenced him to 14 years in a federal jail. David Headley replaced the informer and convicted 12 for allegations of terrorism – which was sentenced to 35 years for the Mumbai attacks.
In 2020, India formally requested Rana’s extradition. But this process was dragged for nearly five years as Rana’s lawyers cited poor health and cited the threat of torture to delay extradition in India.
On 27 February, Rana filed a last -emergency application for pending litigation, stating that his medical condition – including many heart attacks, stage 3 chronic kidney disease, suspected bladder cancer, Parkinson’s disease with cognitive decline, and chronic asthma – sentenced India to death.
Rana then extended the request of the US Supreme Court, but it was rejected even after discussions. On 9 April, he was handed over to Indian authorities before landing in India the next day, where he was sent to custody 18-day anti-terror body National Elastigation Agency (NIA).
