Pakistani-origin Canadian businessman Tahawwur Rana, sought by India for his involvement in the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks, has been ruled extraditable to India by the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. The court affirmed the District Court in the Central District of California’s denial of Rana's habeas corpus petition, supporting the magistrate judge's certification of his extradition. The panel concluded that the charges made by India contained distinct elements from those for which Rana was acquitted in the US, thus the Non Bis in Idem (double jeopardy) exception did not apply. The court held that India provided sufficient competent evidence to support probable cause that Rana committed the charged crimes. Rana has been convicted in the US of supporting the terror group Lashkar-e-Taiba and conspiring to provide material support to a foiled terror plot in Denmark. Despite these rulings, Rana has argued that India did not present enough evidence to show probable cause, but his arguments were rejected.
