The Mumbai Crime Branch has filed a 405 pages fifth supplementary charge sheet against Tahawwur Rana, a Canadian national of Pakistani origin, for his involvement in the 26/11 terror attack. Rana is currently incarcerated in a Los Angeles jail, and awaits extradition. In June 2020 the Indian government submitted a detailed dossier to the US and it was supported by the Joe Biden administration.
This year in May Rana was found eligible for extradition. The LA district court ordered his extradition to India. He has challenged its order in a higher court in the US. He is the fifth accused to be charged, alongside Amir Ajmal Kasab who was hanged in 2012 and Abu Jindal who is still facing trial. Faheem Ansari and Sabaudin Shailh were acquitted after spending 12 years in jail.
