SwamyG, Can you mind map the many DCH and Rana mtgs as reported in the tweets?

Just have two circles, one DCH and other Rana and draw a number of arrows with date and gist of mtg on the arrow.

Thanks in advance.

US Judge orders release of all sealed documents pertaining to Headley/Rana.

This is good news. The Chicago Tribune filed a case arguing that there was no need for secrecy. The docs were sealed to cover up more detailed evidence of ISI-LeT ties. Let's see what turns up.

Amber G. · Post by **Amber G.** » 26 May 2011 01:42

^^^ Good news indeed,

The first to be released is the so-called Santiago proffer, which is a roadmap of evidence to be presented at trial

saip · Post by **saip** » 26 May 2011 01:56

That Santiago Proffer is 57 pages long and the defense response to that is 9 pages long. Anyone has time to go through these?

A brief description of as to what is a Santiago Proffer

The Santiago Proffer is not a new block buster book by John Grisham. It is not a courtroom thriller starring Tom Cruise. It is a boring legal filing. It is mostly used in conspiracy cases; especially organized crime or political corruption. Proffers are outlines of evidence to be presented by the prosecution. The Santiago Proffer is a very specific and detailed outline. It is a road map to the prosecution’s case. It states the bulk of a prosecutor’s case. It may contain statements of cooperating co-conspirators, witnesses, or other evidence not presented earlier. It connects the dots between all the co-conspirators, witnesses, and evidence to the defendant. Prosecutors try to keep a Santiago Proffer under seal from the public for various reasons.

The Rana Trial is dramabazi for sake of entrancing India. The charges are Rana-Headley- Pak gang. None of the pak gang is in US custody.

Headley is the middleman/conduit who turned approver(using India terms). Not much yet to link Rana directly to Pak gang without Headley. Rana is charged in two of these counts as a co-conspirator. The rest of the stuff is to put ISI on the dock due to falling out between US and TSP.
Most likely Rana will get some term(a few years) to be safely out of Indian hands. India under PC will seek access to the rascal/miscreant with US officials there to ensure no questions get real answers.

lets see.

parkaalam.

saip · Post by **saip** » 26 May 2011 02:32

The proffer is in legalese only up to page 18. After that it is a narration of training of Rana, his interaction with various pakis etc.

ramana · Post by **ramana** » 26 May 2011 02:36

Yes I read both of them before I posted the above conclusion.

---------

Rana's lawyers will say/argue : Yes he (Rana) knew Daoud Gilani now known as Daivd Headley from childhood. Yes he hated India due to his being a Pakistani citizen, member of armed forces, 1971 war etc. DCH was the often going to Paksitan and indulging in activities. He provided travel agency cover as he hated India. What ever DCH did he did on his own volition. All this conspiracy is nonsense. The guy used to come and tell him about his escapades and as a childhood friend he used to listen to him. Any Pakstani would be glad at the Mumbai attacks so whats new? He neither participated nor directly helped in the actual attack. All this is DCH throwing the blame on him to evade his own culpabity in all the attack.

The prosecution will come back with those wiretaps and say what were you thinking? here you are participating in the plan. We can set aside the Mumbai attack due to reasonable doubt but what about palns to attack Denmark. You were definitely caught range haath planning the attack.

Judge will give seven to ten years (no parole) for planning the Denmark attack.

Three years later he will get released for good behaviour in jail -teaching sufi music to prisoners. Some US agency will get him working in a travel agency in Chile to channel jihadis through South America.

He is after all Deobandi!

saip · Post by **saip** » 26 May 2011 02:53

I wont be surprised if Rana is acquitted. As far as I can see Rana is accused of providing material support to conspirators. I dont think govt has a strong case proving Rana knowingly participated and provided material support. Evidence appears to be mostly circumstantial.

ramana · Post by **ramana** » 26 May 2011 02:56

Thanks Saip. My take too. However to keep him out of Indian hands he will get some token prison term for his Denmark plot participation.

For this crap they gave plea bargain to DCH!

Looks like there were other reasons.

Amber G. · Post by **Amber G.** » 26 May 2011 04:01

..... However to keep him out of Indian hands he will get some token prison term for his Denmark plot participation.

For this crap they gave plea bargain to DCH!

Ramanaji - Sorry, I am seeing these kind of messages again and again..

Let me put some of my thoughts ...

I, for one am glad, that they are not in "Indian Hands".. one only has to remember Jaswant Singhji escorting Azar, Saeed Seikh and Zargar to Kandhar.

Above is, of course, not an isolated event. How long it took, even to try scums of 92-93 Mumbai blast (or any other terrorist event for that mater) .. and how many are in jail?

DCH's plea bargain is that he will not get a death penalty (BTW Illinois now does not have death penalty !)... he is not going to get out soon. Life without parole is likely outcome.

Indian authorities, by all accounts, were satisfied by their access to DCH.

Rana, I think, is looking for a long jail term (like life).. We will see as trial is still going on... but at present India (and US) both should watch every evidence/lead/intelligence gathered from this trial. If new leads come out, they should be followed and if need be, arrests etc can follow in India if any criminals are discovered.

Evil is not in US justice system (or in India's) .. it is in Paki scums.

This is a federal trial where capital punishment does exist not a state trial.

saip · Post by **saip** » 26 May 2011 04:46

But because of the plea deal he wont be 'eligible' for the death penalty.
Ramana, on page 33 it only said 'they attempted to fire'. May be they never opened fire and so it was never reported to the authorities. Also, it might have happened near the Paki water border and fishermen might have thought they are fishing in paki waters and took evasive action.

saip · Post by **saip** » 26 May 2011 06:46

Also, this is a jury trial -- 8 women, 4 men most of them minorities. It would be difficult to influence all of them. If found guilty the Federal judge has to follow the sentencing guidelines.

vera_k · Post by **vera_k** » 26 May 2011 07:08

As was done with Sen, GoI can offer to appoint Rana to the Planning Commission or the Minorities Commission. He is after all an expert both on security and minority affairs

, and that should get them all the access they need.

You don't need to influence *all* of them. I am not up on the rules but it used to take *one* dissenting juror to hang the jury. Maybe rules have changed and it takes 2 or 3, but the point is that to hang a jury and force a mistrial/re-trial can be accomplished if the stakes are high and the party in question has ways and means.

saip · Post by **saip** » 26 May 2011 07:57

You missed my point. What I am saying is either he has to be acquitted or convicted. And if convicted the judge follows the guidelines. Yes you only need one dissenting juror for a hung jury as this is a criminal trial

It is not just about justice. I doubt some of the Indian authorities really care for justice, they would like to stuff Bhut Jolokia in their orifices and extract data to piece together information, validate existing intel and corroborate ityadi ityadi. Punishing them as per the laws of the land will give some people happiness, but do you think that is the goal for the RAW and others? Naah. However, once Indian authorities have extracted all the juice from them, then whatever punish they met would be a powerful show and tell though.

That comparison is disingenuous. We don't know how the US govt. will react if terrorists hijack a passenger jet full of American citizens and demand the release of David Headley. Their claims of "No negotiation with Terrorists" notwithstanding.

Headley looked up to Ilyas Kashmiri. There was an article about how he was distraught when it was earlier rumored that Kashmiri was killed in a drone strike.

Just thinking - would IK's killing have any significant impact on the ongoing Rana trial?
I mean would Headley feel more free to talk about ISI - Kashmiri links or more details on Kashmiri's terror plans?
