On July 6, the United States (US) government led by President Joe Biden urged a court in California to deny the writ of habeas corpus filed by Pakistani-origin Canadian businessman Tahawwur Rana and reiterated that he be extradited to India where he is sought for his involvement in the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks (26/11), reports The Economic Times. In May a US court approved Rana's extradition to India, who is currently detained at the Metropolitan Detention Centre in Los Angeles.
