00:00It's all happening right here in the national capital of New Delhi.
00:03Taha Burana has landed in India and a few meters from here is the Patiala court
00:10where Taha Burana has been brought by the NIA team.
00:13Remember, this is the man who was one of the key conspirators
00:18and who sent David Coleman Headley to India to do the recce
00:24for the attack on Mumbai's key points, including the Taj Hotel, the Narban Point
00:32and several other targets that David Coleman Headley recorded, did the recce
00:39and then reported back to this man who is in India now, Taha Burana.
00:42What did he tell Taha Burana?
00:44What was the message that Taha Burana passed on to the handlers in Pakistan,
00:49to the Lashkar-e-Tahibad chiefs?
00:50All this is going to be questioned, grilled by the NIA team here
00:56and they would want the answers.
00:58A diplomatic win, definitely.
01:00Now a tweet is also doing rounds about Prime Minister Narendra Modi from 2011
01:05where he had said that the US court not declaring Taha Burana guilty
01:11is a setback for India's diplomacy and India needed to work better.
01:17So that tweet is something that is doing the rounds now
01:21and whether India at that time was positioned in that manner the way it is right now
01:28because Taha Burana has been brought to India
01:30which the previous Congress government failed to do so.
01:34So that particular tweet is something that is actually doing the rounds
01:38and is actually trending.
01:39Meanwhile, this particular character Taha Burana, he tried his last ditch efforts
01:45in order to evade the extradition to India
01:48but Prime Minister Modi's visit to the United States in the month of February this year
01:54is when President Donald Trump said that he would be extraditing Taha Burana to India
01:59which India had been seeking for a very, very long time.
02:02What does he tell the NIA authorities?
02:06What is he going to tell the Indian courts here is very important.
02:09What happens next, whether he will be sent to Tihar Jail or a different facility remains to be seen.
02:15And also Taha Burana being an individual who was a Pakistani national
02:22served in Pakistani army later on left Pakistan for Canada.
02:27From Canada he started an immigration service
02:29and from there he came to Chicago in the United States.
02:32So with the same immigration company
02:33now in the clutches of Indian authorities is a big win definitely.
02:39But to get him here with three nationalities involved
02:43is something that many are quoting it as a big, big achievement.
02:48So the action is happening right here.
02:50We will be bringing you all the details.
02:51Stay tuned with One India.
02:52This is Pankaj Mishra reporting from New Delhi.
