Headley visa papers found: Tharoor

New Delhi
19 December 2009

The missing visa application papers of terror suspect David Coleman Headley
has been found, Union Minister of State of External Affairs Shashi Tharoor Saturday said
here Saturday.

"Yes, it has been found. It is being looked at. Far more important is to find out what he
did in India. The investigations are on," he said on the margins of the CII-Aspen
conference on Ideas India 2009.

Earlier in the week, South Block tied itself into knots trying to explain the facts
surrounding the alleged mysterious disappearance of the documents, on the basis of
which David Coleman Headley and his associate Tahawwur Hussain Rana were issued
visas by the Indian Consulate in Chicago.

While Tharoor told reporters here Thursday that "Rana's visa papers have been found
[but] we are tracing those of Headley's", a statement put out by MEA spokesman Vishnu
Prakash said that it would be erroneous to conclude that the documents are missing.
