Tahawwur Rana has worked in the medical corps of the Pakistani army and after retiring from the army, he shifted to Canada in the 90s. Before going to Canada, Tahawwur Rana went to Chicago, America, where he started an immigration consultancy firm. Police officials said on Thursday that through his immigration firm, Tahawwur Rana had helped Mumbai attack co-conspirator David Headley get a ten-year extension of his Indian visa. David Headley had done the recce for the Mumbai attack. During his stay in India, Headley also pretended to do immigration-related work and during this time he remained in regular contact with Tahawwur Rana.
