While its true they had Mumbai linkages etc they were apprehended to prevent a strike on Denmark. We need to keep this in mind while listening to platititudes about cooperation on terrorism etc. they were under surveillance since Dec 2008. Was India ever informed about this at all? Fat chance.

Bet a dollar to donut hole he wont be extradiated to India.

To keep Psecs happy add Arun Jaitley to the list too saar.

I was wondering why the Narco test is not conducted on Rahul as it was so swiftly done in Pragya/Purohit case.

dear on line editor,From all available media reports and the article published in NIE kochi edition it is proved beyond any doubt that the first and fore most reason was demoralisation of India intelligence agencies secondly there are very close relations between Pak army officers, Al-queda slamic terrorists and every person of islamic origin who has some sympathy with this terrorist scheme.Diplomats,armyfficers ISI polititician all were involved.David Colman Headely and Tahwwur Hussain rana were reliable links who acted as the fronline intelligence for Islamic terrorist supported by Al-Queda .Indian intelligence utter failure resulte in the success of these lawless team dated Noveber 20th 2009 Time 0347Hrs ist AM

Whatever it is, this man has the guts to come on national TV and present his POV, quite unlike the Butts who are shooting off someone else's shoulders and writing letters to the PM about betrayals

Headley case update: Mahesh Bhatt lashes out

Bhatt also lashed out at the media for propagating half truths. “TV has proved that millions of people in our so called very spiritual nation passionately love lust, slander and violence,” said Bhatt further expressing his disgust on media that has branded Rahul a suspect, “I wonder why it is so tough for the media to discriminate between a witness & a suspect? Rahul is a witness not a suspect!”

Pointing out that the news channels and news papers are full of dangerous lies, Bhatt said, “Turn off the television. Don't read the newspapers. It's full of lies, lies and more lies! The truth sellers are lying machines. How do you deal with someone who claims not to seek the truth, but already to possess it?,” questions an angry Bhatt.

The tragic Kanishka bombing killing 329 people in 1985 could have been averted had the Air India plane not been allowed to leave Canada before a bomb-sniffing dog could search the luggage, a former police officer has told a probe commission looking into terror attack.

The Air India Flight 182, which exploded off the Irish coast, was not alerted of the bomb threat and allowed to leave Canada before a bomb-sniffing dog could search the plane and its luggage, Serge Carignan, a former dog handler with Quebec's provincial police, submitted on Wednesday before the inquiry Commission presided over by Justice John Major.

Carignan believed he could have found the explosives but the plane had already left the Montreal airport by the time he arrived to check it.

"I've always wondered why, if I was called to search an airplane and some luggage, why did they let the airplane go before I arrived there," said Carignan. "I did not have a chance to search that airplane. I believe that if I had a chance to search it, things might have turned out differently," he said, adding, "I believe we would have found the explosives."

Carignan testified in Ottawa that he was called to Mirabel airport on June 22, 1985, hours before a bomb blew up the plane. "I was not told it was a bomb threat. I took it upon myself when I received the call that it was a bomb threat," Craigman said.

Carignan said he was told officials needed help searching a plane and luggage, and that the airport's regular Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) dog squad was out of the region on that date. By the time he arrived at the airport, roughly 45 minutes later, the plane had already taken off, Carignan said.

In a startling revelation, an inquiry has been told that the Canadian police was not informed in the days after the 1985 Air India bombing about the recorded phone conversations of the main suspect, evidence that could have led to the conviction of some of the accused had they not been erased.

As the public inquiry resumed its hearing after a three-month break, a former member of the task force claimed the central intelligence agency denied him access to the tapes even after he had learnt about them almost a month after the Kanishka flight bombing that killed 329 people, mostly of Indian origin.

Former Superintendent of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Lyman Henschel said senior officials from RCMP and Canadian Security Intelligence Service liaison held a top- level meeting shortly after the bombing to setup a task force.

He said that despite the presence of the CSIS official at the meeting, he was not told that the intelligence agency had been recording Talwinder Singh Parmar's phone conversations for three months before the disaster.

I think it is Harish Salve, that clown was on CNN-IBN, along with Mahesh and Pooja Bhatt defending Rahul and how it was cruel of NIA to drag him in Media. Based on the interaction, it seemed to me that he was also advising the Bhatts.

Among the several women Headley was seen with, the IB sources say two in particular could have guided Kasab and Khan on that horrific night.

The Pakistan-born American knew that celebrities and women would act as appropriate cover for his activities.

NIA agents, who have visited hotels that Headley stayed in, have confirmation that Headley was often seen with women. The agency has collected information on the appearance of these women and are in the process of identifying them.

Sources said Headley also contacted escort services in India; one such location in Mumbai has provided investigators with information.

He seems to alternate between being evasive and nonchalant in the second video, almost laughing while answering the last question, contrast that with the first video where seems extremely stressed and at one point he says " I will tell all when the time comes".

Chief Judge James F Holderman has extended till next January 14, the date of filing indictment for the Rana, a Chicago resident of Pakistani-origin. A Canadian national, Rana had made several trips to India in the past several years along with his school-time friend and co-accused David Coleman Headley alias Daood Gilani, who has also been arrested on same charges.

Anabhaya wrote:Getting Headley and Rana extradited to India would be a major test of NIA's effectiveness Have no such expectations. This thing has fallen in their lap by chance. US will not hand them over to India and let their own legal process incomplete. Chidambaram says India would press for extradition and that both of them have been booked under Unlawful Activites (Prevention) Act. [ Statements quite along expected lines.]

This is a good chance for Massa/Canada to demonstrate their crediblity in the fight against terrorism vis a vis India. Infact it should be treated as a litmus test.[ They have no obligation]

We really ought to stop getting distracted by the Butts. Getting the two men into Arthur Road and hearing them sing is the only way we can go about dismantling the terror infrastructure set-up over the last few years.[ All this does not necessarily require the presence of the duo] All Indian Mujahideen and SIMI links need to fully gone through - every thread looked into. This will be painstaking work taking months but considering police and intel reforms aren't even touched with a 10ft pole we had it coming sometime! .

Anabhaya wrote:It is not so hard to subvert a 'legal process'. The US continues to run the Guantanamo bay imprisonment centre. India need not buy that snakeoil. Where there is political will there will be a way.

Should the PMO make this an agenda an extradition is possible.
