"Anybody who's committed crime and fled must be brought back": Supriya Sule welcomes Tahawwur Rana 's extradition

Pune (Maharashtra) [India], April 11 (ANI): Nationalist Congress Party (Sharadchandra Pawar) MP Supriya Sule on Friday welcomed the extradition of 26/11 terror attack accused Tahawwur Rana and said that those who fled India after committing a crime must be recalled.
"Of course, we welcome it (Rana's extradition). Anybody who's committed a crime in India and has fled must be brought back," Sule told ANI.
Speaking about the "crash" of crude oil prices, Sule said that she would write to Union Petroleum and Natural Gas Minister Hardeep Singh Puri to seek the benefits of the slashed prices for Indian consumers and citizens.
"I'm going to write to the Minister of Petroleum that when crude oil globally has crashed, I see no reason why that benefit has not been given to the consumer of India and Indian citizens," she added.

When asked about the "tariffs" remarks made by Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar on the issue, Sule said, "What has that got to do with the crude price? I don't know what the DCM has said. I am just telling you what I am going to write to the Petroleum minister."
Speaking on the rise in petrol and diesel prices, Pawar said that the tariffs imposed by the United States of America (USA) on several countries have contributed to these fluctuations. He added that the Mahayuti government would discuss the issue with Union Home Minister Amit Shah, who will be in Maharashtra for two days.
The DCM also spoke about Rana's extradition to India, expressing optimism that his interrogation would provide crucial insights into the orchestration of the attacks, including the individuals who directed him and the motives behind the devastation.
Meanwhile, the United States Department of Justice has termed the extradition of convicted terrorist Tahawwur Hussain Rana as "a critical step" toward seeking justice for the victims of the 26/11 heinous Mumbai terror attacks.
"Rana's extradition is a critical step toward seeking justice for the six Americans and scores of other victims who were killed in the heinous attacks," the Department of Justice said in a statement dated April 10, 2025.
Rana, 64, a Canadian citizen and native of Pakistan, was extradited to stand trial in India on 10 criminal charges stemming from his alleged role in the 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai, the DoJ statement said.
He is charged with numerous offences, including conspiracy, murder, commission of a terrorist act, and forgery, related to his alleged involvement in the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks by Laskhar-e-Tayyiba (LeT), a designated terrorist organization.
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) successfully secured Rana's extradition after years of sustained and concerted efforts to bring the key conspirator behind the 2008 mayhem to justice. According to the NIA, Rana was being held in judicial custody in the US pursuant to proceedings initiated under the India-US Extradition Treaty for his extradition. The extradition finally came through after Rana exhausted all legal avenues to stay on the move.
Rana was brought to India late on April 10 and produced before a special NIA court, which sent Rana to 18 days of NIA custody. (ANI)
