26/11 Case: Rana’s Custody Extended, India Presses Ahead
A Delhi court on Wednesday, July 9, 2025, extended the judicial custody of Tahawwur Hussain Rana, an accused in the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks, until August 13. Rana, extradited from the United States, remains a key figure in the investigation.
The court’s decision follows the prosecution’s arguments emphasizing the ongoing investigation and the need for further interrogation of Rana. His alleged role as a close associate of David Headley, another key accused, remains central to the case.
Rana’s extradition from the US marked a significant step in India’s pursuit of justice for the victims of the 26/11 attacks, which claimed 166 lives. The extended custody signifies the continuing efforts to unravel the full extent of the conspiracy.
This development underscores India’s unwavering commitment to bringing all perpetrators of the Mumbai terror attacks to justice. The ongoing investigation holds profound implications for national security and the fight against terrorism.
