NIA Begins Interrogation of Tahawwur Rana Under Strong Security Cover

A high-level team from the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has started questioning Tahawwur Rana under tight security. The officials are interrogating him in connection with his suspected role in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks. Rana arrived in India recently after the United States approved his extradition.

The NIA team brought Rana to a secure location and began the interrogation early in the day. Officers are asking him about his links with David Coleman Headley, one of the key conspirators in the 2008 attacks. Headley had earlier revealed Rana’s involvement during his testimony before Indian and American authorities.

The NIA officials are focusing on Rana’s movements, contacts, and communications leading up to the Mumbai attacks. They are using documents, call records, and Headley’s past statements to question Rana. The agency wants to confirm whether Rana knowingly helped plan or support the attacks that killed 166 people and injured hundreds more.

The NIA has taken strong measures to ensure Rana’s safety during the questioning. Security teams are guarding the interrogation center, and only top-level officers are allowed access. Officials are recording the entire process and closely monitoring every development.

Rana, a Pakistani-origin Canadian businessman, has denied involvement in the attacks. He earlier served jail time in the U.S. for supporting terrorism and plotting attacks on foreign targets. Indian investigators believe he played a key role in helping Headley travel and gather information for the 26/11 attacks.

The agency plans to continue the interrogation over several days. Officials will cross-check Rana’s answers with existing evidence. If they find solid proof, they may file fresh charges against him in India.

This marks a major step forward in the 26/11 investigation. The NIA hopes that Rana’s questioning will reveal more details about the people and networks behind one of India’s worst terror attacks. The agency also wants to show that justice will reach everyone involved, no matter how long it takes.
