COURT-LD TERROR 2LST

The warrants came a day after links between terror
networks and Pakistan's official establishment as well
as intelligence agencies were underlined by comments made by
India's National Security Adviser Shivshankar Menon.
His remarks came against the backdrop of Headley
stating during questioning that Pakistani Navy trained 26/11
attackers and ISI controlled the 60-hour-long Mumbai assault
from beginning to the end.
NIA had earlier withdrawn its plea for NBW against
Headley and his associate Tahawwur Rana saying it was
"untenable" in the changed circumstances.
"We want to withdraw the plea against Headley and Rana
as one of them has been duly interrogated by us and they are
in custody of the US with whom India has an extradition
treaty," the prosecutor had said.
In the FIR lodged on November 11 last year, NIA has
booked them under various provisions of IPC, Unlawful
Activities (Prevention) Act and SAARC Convention (Suppression
of Terrorism) Act, dealing with waging a war against the
government of India, conspiracy and procuring arms and
ammunition.
The FIR mentioned inputs provided by FBI saying a
detailed probe was required to unravel the entire conspiracy
hatched by Headley and others to carry out terror attacks in
the country.
Besides his various trips to India, Headley, in the
guise of an immigration law consultant, had also come to Delhi
from Abu Dhabi on February 7 last year and went back via
Mumbai after nearly ten days, it said. PTI SJK
