Islamabad: The interrogation of David Headley, a Pakistani-American terror suspect linked to the Mumbai attacks, has thrown up a "revealing set of facts" that have been shared with Pakistani authorities, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in Islamabad on Monday.


"(of the revelations made by Headley) but I know that it has been quite a revealing set of facts that we have shared with the Pakistani authorities," Clinton said during an interaction with a group of television anchors.

Responding to a question on whether the US will book Headley for the murder of six Americans during the 2008 Mumbai attacks, Clinton said: "I don t know everything he has been booked for...but he has been connected with many different events, including Mumbai, but others as well.

Headley's interrogation by American investigators, which "brought much of this to light", is continuing, she said.

Headley was "fully cooperative and he was willing to explain in great detail a lot of what he had done over the years", she added.

Asked if Pakistani authorities would be granted access to Headley, who is currently in the custody of the FBI, Clinton said a decision in this regard would have to be made by the US Justice Department.

Headley, the son of a Pakistani broadcaster and an American woman, has admitted that he conducted surveillance of the sites that were targeted by 10 Pakistani terrorists during the Mumbai attacks.

He had also told Indian and American investigators that the attacks were carried out by the Pakistan-based Lashker-e-Taiba.

Clinton also said Headley and Faisal Shahzad, the Pakistan-American responsible for the botched car bomb attack in New York, were radicalised in the US but were "facilitated, directed and operationalised" from Pakistan.
