India will soon send a team to the United States to gather more information about the activities of Lashkar-e-Taiba operative David Headley and his accomplice Tahawwur Hussain Rana,who are accused of giving material support to 26/11 Mumbai terror attack,and their confessional statements.

However,the Indian team will not seek access to Headley and Rana.

The decision has been taken after Union Home Secretary R K Singh held a meeting with US Deputy Secretary for Homeland Security Jane Holl Lute here today.

During the Indo-US Homeland Security Dialogue,the American official conveyed to Singh that the US would share more information about Headley and Rana,their activities in India during their multiple visits and their statements before a Chicago court.

India is hopeful that the team will get more information about the duo’s links with Pakistan’s government machinery and militant groups working against India.

The US government has submitted before the Chicago court,where Rana was tried,that he was running an immigrantion consultancy firm and let Headley use his business as a cover for two terror plots,including the Mumbai one.
