‘Rana’s extradition big win for India, expose Pak conspirators too’: 26/11 survivor

Devika Rotawan, a survivor of the 26/11 Mumbai terrorist attacks, said on Thursday that the extradition of main culprit Tahawwur Hussain Rana from the US was a big gain for India and asked other conspirators holed up in Pakistan be similarly exposed and brought to book.

Rotawan, a crucial witness in the 26/11 case who identified terrorist Mohammed Ajmal Kasab (the lone surviving attacker) in court during the trial, urged capital penalty for Rana (64).

Rotawan was trapped in the crossfire at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) in south Mumbai, one of the locations targeted by terrorists on the evening of November 26, 2008, when he was only nine years old. She was struck by a bullet in her leg. A gunshot had hit her in the leg.
