NEW DELHI—India is seeking the extradition of a top Pakistan Islamic extremist suspected to have planned the 2008 Mumbai attacks after the United States said last week he was living freely in Pakistan, government officials said on Sunday.
India and the United States have both indicted Sajid Mir of the Kashmir-focused Sunni extremist organisation Lashkar-e-Taiba (“Army of the Righteous”) group for the three-day attacks on hotels, a train station and a Jewish centre in which 166 people were killed including six Americans.
