The Indian government Sunday claimed that the arrested U.S. terror suspect, David Coleman Headley, had visited India, including Mumbai, on a number of occasions, before he was nabbed by the FBI in Chicago last month."We do know that Headley had visited India a number of times. That is being investigated. He has been in Mumbai and some other places," Indian Home Secretary G.K. Pillai said.

Details of conversation between Headley and Rana, submitted by prosecutors to the Chicago court last week, indicates that the LeTwas giving priority to its attack on the National Defense College over other targets. The reference to the National Defense College as a target was made by the duo during their conversation on Sept. 7, which was recorded by the FBI. Posted by: tipper 2009-11-08 |
