Terror suspect Headley had visited India: Home Secy

New Delhi, Nov 8 (PTI) David Coleman Headley, arrested by
the FBI for conspiring to carry out terror attacks had visited
India, including Mumbai, several times, Home Secretary of
India G K Pillai said Sunday.

"We do know that Headley had visited India a number of
times. That is being investigated," he told reporters here
when asked about media reports which said that the US citizen
had visited the country.
"He has been in Mumbai and some other places," the Home
Secretary said to a question about the places Headley had
visited in India.
49-year-old Headley was arrested last month at Chicago's
O'Hare International Airport as he prepared to board a flight
to Philadelphia, intending to travel to Pakistan. FBI also
arrested Tahawwur Hussain Rana, 48, a Canadian citizen of
Pakistani origin, for alleged involvement in terror
activities.
While Pillai did not give any further details, sources in
the investigating agencies said they were probing Headley's
involvement in setting up of an office in Mumbai which used to
provide visa and travel facilities to youths.
Mumbai Police has been asked to prepare a list of people
using the services of Headley's company to travel abroad.
Some people with whom Headley had got in touch upon his
arrival in the country were also being questioned.
Sources, however, said so far no arrest or detention has
been made. (More) PTI ACB
