Your Danish Cartoons Hangover Update

The Indian press has covered the trial of Tahawwur Rana more closely than press organizations in the US. Rana is accused of aiding and abetting admitted terrorism advance scout David Coleman Headley. Headley earlier made a plea to avoid the death penalty and extradition, and has since provided reams of information on the activities of terrorist organizations and possible Pakistani intelligence service support of same.
This article notes that the jury had a full day of deliberations against Rana yesterday, which should continue today and into the next few until there's a verdict. What's interesting is that one-third of the charges facing Rana are related to a planned assault that never came off against the
Jyllands-Posten office in Copenhagen. I can't tell if this wasn't explored at the trial or if it's the coverage that more naturally settled in on the Mumbai Massacre bits.
