New Delhi: Amid reports that David
Headley may plead guilty in the Chicago court, External
Affairs S M Krishna today said India will await what the
terror suspect does and not prejudge his action.

"I don`t want to get hypothetical on what he intends
doing or what he (Headley) ultimately will do. We will await
what he does in terms of his own statement in the trial,"
Krishna told reporters in New Delhi.

However, Krishna refused to comment on whether India
will seek the extradition of Headley, accused of providing
support to the 26/11 terrorists. "The home ministry will be in
a better position to tell you about it," he said.

Headley, a Pakistani-American resident of Chicago,
faces six counts of conspiracy involving bombing of public
places in India, murdering and maiming people in India and
abroad and providing logistical support to terror groups like
Lashkar-e-Taiba.
