TERROR-PROBE 3LT


The bail application of Rana is scheduled to come up
before the court next week and that of Headley in December.

Childhood friends and students of same military school in
Pakistan, Headley and Rana have been charged with aiding
terrorists and could face up to life in prison if convicted.
They are also accused of conspiring with another man to
plot an attack on a Danish newspaper that published cartoons
of Prophet Mohammed in 2005.
In 1997, when Headley was charged with smuggling heroin,
his name was Daood Saleem Gilani; under which name the case is
still in the court records which also shows he was living in
New York. Then as Gilani, Headley was travelling to Pakistan
and bringing heroin back.
Court records show, Gilani was sentenced to a 15-month
prison term.
In 1999, he sought permission from the Brooklyn Court in
New York to travel to Pakistan as his family members lived
there. He was granted the permission to travel to Pakistan on
parole.
Meanwhile, raids on the goat farm house of Rana have
become the talk of the Kinsman town on the outskirts of
Chicago. Rana used to supply goat meat to South Asian grocery
stores and had a large Indian-American and Pakistani-American
clientele.
Incidentally, there are also three nuclear power plants
near Kinsman.
Morris Daily Herald, a local daily, quoted residents as
saying that the duo "could have blown up the nuclear plants."
