New Delhi: Indian authorities have sought fresh details from the US based on the interrogation of 26/11 Mumbai terror accused Tahawwur Rana, officials said on Thursday.

On a request from the National Investigation Agency (NIA), which is probing the 2008 terror attack case, India has invoked the Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT) to seek the details, the officials said.

They said necessary communication has been made through designated channels to process the probe agency's request.

\"Based on what transpired during Rana's interrogation, details have been sought from the US authorities through the MLAT route,\" a senior NIA official said.

Rana, who is currently lodged in Tihar prison here, had been interrogated in detail following his extradition from the US on April 10 this year.
