New Delhi: A few days before US President Barack Obama's visit, Home Secretary G.K. Pillai told CNN-IBN that the US disappointed New Delhi by not sharing information on David Headley. US ambassador Timothy Roemer denied the charge but refused to get into a war of words.
Less than a fortnight before US president Barrack Obama visits india, Home Secretary GK Pillai revealed that India was disappointed with the US as they did not share the LeT operatives names. Had they done so, at least after the horrific Mumbai attacks, David Headley could have been nabbed.
In defence, US ambassador Timothy Roemer said, “When India asked for access to Headley we gave it...cause India is our partner, our friend and someone with whom we share intelligence on a daily basis. So India could sit down with Headley and ask him what happened prior to Mumbai. We weren't afraid of what he would say. In fact, we provided that opportunity to India with unprecedented access.
