Tahawwur Rana, 26/11 attacks' mastermind, claimed Pakistani Army declared him a deserter before he became its trusted agent, NDTV reported. During Rana's time in Siachen, he developed pulmonary edema, which led to his absence from duty and being declared a deserter. He confessed he'd agreed to be part of 26/11 attacks as David Headley assured he'd help clean Rana's records.
