On August 27, 2020, a US court approved the extradition of Pakistani-Canadian businessman Tahawwur Rana to India to face charges in the 2008 Mumbai terror attack. Rana had been indicted in the US for providing material support to the Pakistan-based terror group Lashkar-e-Tayyiba (LeT), which was behind the attack.
Rana was arrested in 2009 and subsequently convicted of providing material support to LeT in 2011. However, he has always maintained that he had no knowledge of the 2008 attack. The US District Court for the Northern District of Illinois approved the extradition after a long legal battle, and the decision now rests with the US Department of Justice.
