India to approach NY court to prove ISI as terror group

India may approach a New York court to be a party to a lawsuit, filed by the family of 26/11 victims Rabbi Gavriel Noah Holtzberg and his wife Rivka, to declare Pakistan’s spy agency ISI as a terrorist group.

Armed with many documents, which prove the ISI’s links with terror groups like Lashkar-e-Taiba, India may implead itself in the lawsuit filed in the federal court to help the petitioners as well as declaring ISI as a terrorist outfit.

“Our main purpose is to help the family of the Rabbi to get justice as well as to prove in the New York court ISI’s direct link with terror outfits like LeT which carried out the Mumbai attack,” a government official said.

If the New York court is convinced about ISI’s role in 26/11 attack, it will strengthen the case of declaring ISI as terrorist outfit by the US and the UN.
