The United States virtually ruled out the extradition of Pakistani American David Headley to India even as New Delhi expressed disappointment at the 35-year sentence given to him by a Chicago court
India wants Headley aka Daood Gilani, a key plotter of the 2008 Mumbai terror attack to be extradited to so he can face a 'harsher' sentence than he received in the US.
"The Justice Department spoke to this. He's been tried, convicted, and will serve in the United States," State Department spokesperson Victoria Nuland said Friday when asked about a report that India wanted to keep up the effort to extradite Headley.
