As India prepares to bring back Tahawwur Rana—accused of involvement in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks—the father of a police constable killed in the carnage has demanded the death penalty for the Pakistani-origin Canadian national. Subhash Shinde, father of SRPF constable Rahul Shinde, who died battling terrorists at the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel, said capital punishment for Rana would be a “befitting tribute” to all the victims, including 166 civilians and security personnel. “As Rana’s role has come to light, he should be hanged. The trauma of that attack still haunts us even after 16 years,” Shinde told PTI, speaking from his home in Solapur district, Maharashtra.
