India Is Looking for the Mastermind of the Mumbai Terrorist Attacks

If he was living freely in Pakistan, you might want to consider the Mossad-Munich route:

India is seeking the extradition of a top Pakistan militant 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 Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba group for the three-day attacks on hotels, a train station and a Jewish centre in which 166 people were killed including six Americans.

While Pakistan took action against the Lashkar founder Hafiz Saeed last year, it continued to provide safe harbour to other top militant leaders, the U.S. State Department's 2019 country report on terrorism said. 

One of them was Sajid, the "project manager" of the Mumbai attack, believed to remain free in Pakistan, the U.S. report said.
