Intelligence shared by the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) following the interrogation of David Coleman Headley and Tahawwur Hussain Rana who were arrested on charges of planning major terrorist attacks in India and Denmark indicate more targets were on the LeT's radar in India, said top intelligence sources.
"We will get a better picture when our team of Indian investigators get permission to interrogate them. They will also interrogate the accused on whether another 26/11-like terror plot was being planned against India," a source said.
Officers of the Research & Analysis Wing (RAW), India's external intelligence agency, and the Intelligence Bureau (IB) reached Chicago this week.
They were expected to return Friday but following the disclosure that LeT had other probable targets, the team will stay back for a few more days.
Rana, 48, and Headley, 49, are charged with conspiring to attack the Copenhagen newspaper Jyllands-Posten, which sparked anger in much of the Muslim world in 2005 by publishing 12 cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad.
The prosecution's case against Rana is on the basis of recorded conversations, emails and other documentary evidence that reportedly demonstrates that he supported the conspiracy.
Court papers also said that in late 2008 Rana, who operates an immigration law service in Chicago, had a discussion with someone associated with the LeT but who was identified only as Individual B.
The FBI also alleged that the duo had been in constant touch with Ilyas Kashmiri of Al Qaeda's 313 Brigade. Kashmiri has a $600,000 reward on his head by the Pakistan government. The US has also been trying to nab him.
Headley engaged in extensive international travel since the second half of 2008 and made multiple trips to Pakistan where he spent a lot of time, often for months at a stretch.

Atleast some rational comments after such a long time. Otherwise people just resort to immature religion bashing only.
SCHOOLS AND HOTELS? schools are where CHILDREN come to study and learn new things which will help them build a better world tomorrow, you extremists want to kill the children? Hotels are places where people stay for purposes of work or leisure.. It's like shooting a sleeping soldier, It's not fair to humanity that such things take place!
Few things need to be done:
1. we Indians irrespective of religious background should support the muslims, they belong to India and they are our brothers and sisters. Not all of them are bad, some of them have been brainwashed and fooled into joining violent groups that inflict terror and are anti-national. In a dozen apples if one is bad can we throw all of it away? trust muslims.
2. The muslim community must make nationwide initiative to create awareness among fellow muslims not to fall into such traps laid by scheming extremists. muslims must also understand there is a world out there aside from their religion and their fellow muslims, they must acknowledge that hindus and christians are their brothers and must initiate conversations or encounters of a friendly nature. Hindu's and christians get over the notion that muslim's cannot be trusted and give them the benefit of the doubt.
3. I.B, R & AW and all other intelligence agencies must be allotted higher financial budget to improve their skills through efficient, modern training and increase their manpower. They must be in such a comfortable position that they can tip-off local security agencies of any plan of attack by terrorists in advance that we may be able to avoid such attacks. There's a lot of potential in India but due to lack of knowledge & information and comparatively higher pay-risk ratio many efficient Indian's don't join such agencies. Adequate advertisement must be made and the people joining the agencies must be filtered and only the best must get through.
In the end, it's your India and mine, she needs your support not your sarcasm or arrogance. Jai Hind!
Pakistan created a hydra which is destroying itself.
Well Deserved.
