Early arrived in India on Thursday night after extradition with the United States, graduating from a long legal battle.
A special court of NIA on Friday sent Tahavur Hussein early, a key accused in the Mumbai terrorist attacks in 2008, up to 18-day custody of the National Investigation Agency (NIA). Early arrived in India on Thursday night after extradition with the United States, graduating from a long legal battle.
Early, a hike to Pakistan, born in Pakistan, landed in Delhi at about 6:30 pm on a special statutory flight. The return of 64 years of age notes a serious breakthrough in India’s perennial efforts to attract inspirers 26/11 to justice.
NIA provided strong evidence, including emails sent to the wound to justify his care. The agency told the court that the interrogation of the wound is vital for disclosure of more details about the 26/11 plot. Investigators ask him about his role in planning and supporting the deadly attacks.
Who is Dayan Kryshnan?
Senior lawyer Diana Krishna, the chief lawyer for criminal responsibility and an experienced Supreme Court practicing, will lead the charge of the wound. Kryshno is known for deals with loud cases such as the trial of the 2001 Parliament and Delhi in Delhi 2012. Its basis in international cases of extradition makes it good for this difficult legal battle.
Kryshno participated in the case of 26/11 since 2010, when he was part of the NIA team, which was questioned by David Hadley in Chicago. In 2014, he was appointed a special prosecutor in cases of extradition of both Headley and early. He also represented India in cases of extradition involving Ravi Shankaran and Raymond Varley.
His legal arguments have played a key role in conviction of the US court in deflection of the wounding demand for dual danger – the idea that a person cannot be judged twice for the same crime. It was a turning point in this case. The US Supreme Court eventually denied the final appeal of the wound on April 4, 2025, clearing the path to its extradition.
Kryshno will be supported by a special prosecutor of Narinder Man and other experienced lawyers, including Sanjavi Sheshadra and Schridhar Keyla.
