erusalem (Israel), April 10 2025, (ANI): Former Israeli Ambassador to India, Mark Sofer on April 10 praised Indian government over extradition of Tahawwur Rana to India. Speaking to ANI he said that nothing but praise for the Indian authorities, the Indian government, for not giving up, for chasing the terrorists, more than 17 years down the line and for bringing them to justice. He said, “I have nothing but praise for the Indian authorities, the Indian government, for not giving up, for chasing the terrorists, more than 17 years down the line and for bringing them to justice... Almost 200 people or so that were massacred by the Lashkar-e-Tayyiba (LT) in 2008, they deserved justice. The families deserve justice. It was a trauma for Israel, but above all, it was a trauma for India...It sends a strong message to terrorists anywhere that we will never give up, that India will never give up. You will be held responsible for the attack...We worked very closely then with the Indian authorities in trying to save the lives of the hostages...It was a four or five-day horror that we all went through...Today is in many ways a historic or momentous occasion in the fact that people are being brought to trial and being extradited to India for the crimes that they committed even 17, 18 years ago”.
