Mumbai Police has clarified that any decision to take custody of 26/11 accused Tahawwur Rana will be contingent upon the specific conditions laid out in the extradition order from the United States. According to ANI reports, this decision will be made only once the accused is officially brought to Indian soil.

Rana, a Pakistani-Canadian national, is being extradited in connection with a conspiracy case originally registered by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in 2009, linked to the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks. The Mumbai Crime Branch has stated that while a case of criminal conspiracy against Rana was filed by the NIA in Delhi, the scope of Mumbai Police’s involvement remains unclear at this stage.
