CIA denies US terror-suspect David Coleman Headley was its agent | The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) on Thursday has rebuffed all reports claiming Pakistani-origin US
national David Coleman Headley, accused in the 26/11 terror attacks, of being a CIA agent. CIA spokesperson Marie E Harf denied that Headley had connections with
the CIA, when posed questions related to Headley's links with the CIA. "I can't
comment on an ongoing investigation, but any suggestion that this individual worked
for the CIA is flat wrong," said the CIA spokesperson. Headley is one of the two
Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) operatives arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation
(FBI) in October. The FBI got Headley while he was planning to head towards Pakistan
via Philadelphia . There are charges against him of plotting a major terror attack
against India that left 166 people dead in Mumbai. CIA spokesperson Marie E Harf
also avoided commenting on the ongoing Headley-Rana case asserting that the case
is being probed. |
