India Gets Access to Headley, Investigators Can Quiz Him Any Time Now: Report
The US President Barack Obama has assured Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh of allowing Indian authorities to quiz Pakistani-born American national and Lashkar operative David Coleman Headley on his role in the Mumbai terror attacks, reported CNN-IBN quoting sources.
With the US imposing no pre-conditions on the access to Headley, Indian investigators can go and cross examine Headley, who is currently under FBI custody, report said.
There were some road blocks in the past in Headley’s interrogation which were taken care on in a meeting between the Solicitor General of India Gopal Subramanium and the US Attorney General Eric Holder.
According to report, a new investigating team will be set up by India to go and question Headley.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Home Minister P Chidambaram will be briefed on the Headley case later Saturday, said report.
