New Delhi: Indian authorities can go and cross examine David Coleman Headley on his role in the Mumbai carnage any time now. The US has imposed no pre-conditions on the access to Headley who is currently under FBI custody.
The US President Barak Obama had assured India Prime Minister Manmohan Singh of letting Indian authorities question Headly of late. But there had been roadblocks in the past which have been taken care of in a meeting between the Solicitor General of India Gopal Subramaniam and the US Attorney General Eric Holder.
Headley may be grilled by Indian authorities any time now. A new investigating team will be set up by India to go and question Headley, sources said. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Home Minister P Chidambaram will be briefed on the Headley case later Saturday.
Headley has already confessed to his role in the November 26, 2008 Mumbai assault, in a bid to avoid the death penalty.
