Mumbai attack quiz

Indian investigators will be able to question a Chicago man who pleaded guilty to scouting targets for the 2008 terror attacks in Mumbai, a senior US official said today.

US Assistant Secretary of State Robert Blake said investigators probing the Mumbai terror attack would gain access to David Coleman Headley to learn more about his involvement, although he would not be extradited to India.

Headley has pleaded guilty to making surveillance videos in preparation for the siege of India’s financial capital and to involvement in a plot to attack a Danish newspaper over cartoons depicting the Prophet Mohammed.
