The LeT operative told a US court that he had plans of writing a book and making a film on his life, which would include the Mumbai attacks LeT operative David Coleman Headley told a US court yesterday that he had conducted a recce of the German Bakery in Pune and identified Chabad houses in Delhi, Pushkar and Pune as potential targets. Testifying during the trial of Tahawwur Hussain Rana, a Mumbai attack co-accused, Headley said that he made a video of the German Bakery, which was bombed on February 13, 2010, killing at least 17 people and injuring 60 others. <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2011/jun/headley.jpg" border="5" /> The German Bakery was attacked after Headley's arrest by the FBI. Headley, who ended his testimony, said that he had made a list of Chabad houses in Delhi, Pushkar and Pune which could be targeted. The German Bakery is located near the Chabad House and an Osho Ashram in Pune. The German Bakery blast was a part of the Karachi Project ufffd an LeT project with the Indian Mujahideen. Earlier, Headley had told the FBI that he did not carry out surveillance of the Bakery, but later confessed to the Indian agents of National Investigation Agency that he had conducted its surveillance. The 50-year-old terrorist has pleaded guilty to 12 terrorism charges related to the deadly 26/11 attacks and other plots in the wake of his 2009 arrest here. Headley also said that he had plans of writing a book and making a movie on the events of his life. Rana's lawyer, Patrick Blegen, said that Headley had said this to several people, including his wife. "If I write a book, I can make huge amounts of money," Headley had said. 'I fooled Rana' The Pakistani-American also said that he made a "fool" of Rana by involving him in the 26/11 Mumbai attack conspiracy. "I made a fool of him (Rana). Poor fellow was stuck in this for no fault of his. I made a fool of him in getting to assist me on what I did. I made a fool of him," Headley told Rana's lawyer. While Headley has pleaded guilty, Rana has maintained that he is not guilty of the charge of "supporting terrorism". Defence attorneys said Headley lied to the law enforcement agencies and implicated Rana in the plot in a bid to save his life. Headley was cross-examined by lawyers of Rana, a Canadian of Pakistani origin who is standing trial at a Chicago court after being slapped with a dozen charges in connection with the Mumbai attacks. The defence lawyers said Headley lived multiple lives and used his friend over the years. Rana and Headley met as teenagers at a Pakistani military school. Headley conceded that he was secretly using the Internet at Rana's house for terror research. "As expected this guy has a very troubled history and past," Blegen said. "It's my sense that he answered the questions affirmatively because we had a stack of papers to contradict him. He has lied in the past," he said, adding that Headley expressed remorse at killing Indian people. "You are remorseful for what you have done?" Blegen asked at the trial. "Yes, I feel bad about my grievances and the way I went about addressing them," Headley said.
