U.S. President Donald Trump announced the approval of Tahawwur Rana's extradition to India. Rana is accused of involvement in the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks and is currently held in Los Angeles. The U.S. Supreme Court cleared Rana's extradition in January, rejecting his appeal. India has been coordinating with U.S. authorities for his transfer. The Mumbai attacks, carried out by ten Pakistani terrorists, resulted in significant casualties and damage in November 2008. Rana's extradition marks a significant step in seeking justice for the attacks.
