LD HEADLEY 3 LST

Headley was first arrested in 1998 for conspiring to
smuggle heroin into the US from Pakistan. However, after his
arrest he cooperated with the investigation, giving
information about his involvement in drug trafficking and his
Pakistani suppliers.
Due to his cooperation, he was sentenced to less than
two years in prison and shortly thereafter went to Pakistan to
conduct undercover surveillance operations for the Drug
Enforcement Administration.
In 2002 and 2003, Headley allegedly attended terrorism
training camps in Pakistan maintained by Lashkar and conspired
with its members and others, including co-accused Rana, Ilyas
Kashmiri and Abdur Rehman in planning and executing the
attacks on India and a Danish newspaper.
He conducted extensive surveillance of targets in
Mumbai between September 2006 and July 2008, taking
photographs and making videotapes of various potential
targets, including those attacked in the November 2008 attacks
that killed approximately 164 people and left hundreds more
injured.
After every trip to India, Headley allegedly travelled
to Pakistan to share videos and photographs of the targets in
India with Lashkar members. PTI
