Press Trust of India New Delhi
A Delhi court on Friday extended the judicial custody of 26/11 Mumbai attack accused Tahawwur Hussain Rana till July 9.
Special Judge Chander Jit Singh passed the order after Rana was produced before it through video conference after expiry of his judicial custody granted earlier.
The judge, meanwhile, sought a status report from Tihar by June 9 on the health condition of Rana, after his lawyer raised concerns about his wellbeing.
Rana, a close associate of 26/11 main conspirator David Coleman Headley alias Daood Gilani, a US citizen, was brought to India after the US Supreme Court on April 4 dismissed his review plea against his extradition to India.
The court sent him to judicial custody last month.
On November 26, 2008, a group of 10 Pakistani terrorists went on a rampage, carrying out a coordinated attack on a railway station, two luxury hotels and a Jewish centre, after they sneaked into India's financial capital using the sea route.
As many as 166 people were killed in the nearly 60-hour assault.

Spy case: Punjab YouTuber's remand extended by two days, police find 150 Pakistani numbers in his contact list
CHANDIGARH: A court in Mohali extended the police remand of Punjab YouTuber Jasbir Singh by two days. Singh was arrested on June 4 on charges of spying for Pakistan's ISI. Police said they found around 150 suspicious Pakistani numbers on Singh's contact list in his mobile phone. Singh was produced before the local court in Mohali on Saturday after his three-day police remand ended. The state police sought a seven-day remand but the court granted them two more days of custody, said Singh's counsel. A senior police official said Singh had met the Lahore-based Nasir Dhillon on three trips to Pakistan after they connected as fellow vloggers. Police are investigating the role of Dhillon and his potential links to Pakistani intelligence. He reportedly helped facilitate Singh's visa and visits. Police officials suspect that Singh might have deleted sensitive data from his mobile phone before his arrest. A forensic examination of the device is underway to recover any communications with Pakistani handlers. Singh's ties with other suspected operatives Haryana-based YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra and Shakir 'Jutt Randhawa', a Pakistani intelligence officer, are also being investigated.

'Don't Equate Terrorists With Victims': Jaishankar's Stern Message, India Slams Terror Sympathy
In a powerful diplomatic moment, US Congressman Brad Sherman directly confronted a Pakistani delegation led by Bilawal Bhutto Zardari during their visit to Washington, DC. Sherman demanded action against the Pakistan-based terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed, which was responsible for the 2002 murder of American journalist Daniel Pearl. He also called on Pakistan to release Dr. Shakil Afridi, the doctor who helped the US locate Osama bin Laden. Additionally, Sherman urged Pakistan to ensure religious freedom for Hindus, Christians, and Ahmadiyya Muslims. This high-level meeting took place alongside the Indian parliamentary delegation visit, where Shashi Tharoor and others briefed US officials on Operation Sindoor and India's counter-terror strategy post the Pahalgam terror attack.

India receives request from China's staunch enemy for D4 anti-drone system, not US, Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia, it is...
New Delhi: Taiwan has officially asked India for the weapons with which India had destroyed Pakistani drones during Operation Sindoor. Taiwan has sent a request to buy the D4 anti-drone system developed by India's DRDO and Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL). China is bound to get angry at this request of Taiwan because China does not want any country to help Taiwan. But the way China is giving defense packages and modern weapon systems to Pakistan, experts say that India should also hand over similar weapons to Taiwan. The D4 anti-drone system has been developed by India's DRDO and manufactured by Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL). The power of the D4 anti-drone system was seen during Operation Sindoor, when Pakistan attacked India with about 300 to 400 drones made by Turkey and China. During this time, India shot down all the drones in the air itself. India also shot down Turkey's Bayraktar TB-2 drone. This revealed the strength of India's advanced soft kill jamming and hard kill laser capability which stunned the world. D4, i.e. Detect, Deter, Destroy, Defend, is an integrated anti-drone system developed jointly by India's DRDO and BEL (Bharat Electronics Limited). This system works at 4 levels. Detect: Accurately detects the presence of drones with multi-frequency radar and EO/IR sensor. Deter: It can deviate enemy drones from the mission through signal jamming and GPS spoofing. Destroy: Drones armed with laser-based hard-kill technology and RF jammers in the system can be destroyed in the air itself. Defend: Ensures the protection of sensitive areas from any remaining drone or swarm attack. China considers Taiwan as its part and has clearly stated that it does not mind using force to merge Taiwan with China. In the last few years, China has increased its military exercises and drone surveillance in the Taiwan Strait. Since 2024, the PLA has doubled the number of surveillance and attack drones near the Taiwan border. In such a situation, there is a great need for a first-rate anti-drone system for Taiwan.
