Rana's Interrogation Seeks 26/11 Local Links
The Sunday Guardian
|April 13, 2025
Officials say ISI's compartmentalized planning limited contact among operatives, hiding or avoiding local links.
One of the primary goals of the questioning of the 64-year-old Tahawwur Hussain Rana, a key accused in the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks, would be to uncover the details about local Indian assets and helpers in India who may have aided Lashkar-e-Taiba and Pakistan's ISI in the devastating attacks that killed 166 people, a possibility long suspected but never conclusively proven.
Rana was extradited from the United States on April 10 after being arrested in 2009.
Indian officials have consistently argued that the scale of the attacks—targeting iconic sites like Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, Taj Mahal Hotel, Oberoi Trident, and Nariman House—required local knowledge or support.
"Such an operation cannot happen without the involvement of locals," a senior official who was a part of the probe, had told this reporter ten years ago.
