<keyword id="64245" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="David-Headley">David Headley</keyword>, the Pakistani-American LeT operative, today deposed before a Mumbai court via video-link after he was made an approver in the 26/11 case. Headley said that he came to India seven times before the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks; he also stated that his main contact in LeT was Sajid Mir, another accused in the case. 
 
In more than seven years since the attacks, this is the first time that Headley deposed before the court. 
 
The deposition through video conference began at 7 AM, in which Headley claimed to be a "true follower of LeT" and said that along with the seven times before the attacks, he has also visited India afterwards, once. 
 
Headley is serving 35 years of prison sentence in the US for his role in the terror attacks. He said that he changed his name from Dawood Gilani to David Headley in 2006 for the ease to enter India and set up some business. 
 
"I applied for change in name on February 5, 2006 in Philadelphia. I changed my name to David Headley to get a new passport under that name. I wanted a new passport so that I could enter India with an American identity. 
 
"After I got a new passport I disclosed it to my colleagues in LeT of which one of them was Sajid Mir, the person with whom I was dealing with. The objective for coming to India was to set up an office/business so that I can live in India. Before the first visit, Sajid Mir gave me instructions to make a general video of Mumbai," Headley said in his video conference. 
 
Headley also stated he furnished all "wrong" information in his Indian visa application "to protect his cover". 
 
On his visits to India, he drew maps, took video footages and scouted several targets for the attacks including the Taj Hotel, Oberoi Hotel and Nariman House, which provided vital information for the 10 LeT terrorists who finally launched the attack. 
 
In December last year, the court had made him an approver in the case and directed him to depose before the court on February 8, to which he had agreed on the condition of being granted pardon, which was accepted with certain conditions. 
 
Last year, Mumbai Police had moved an application before the court, requesting Headley to be tried by the court along with 26/11 key plotter Abu Jundal, given that both were the conspirators and abettors behind the attacks that left 166 people dead.

Jordan. In a new <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/24/movies/eddie-murphy-arsenio-hall-coming-2-america.html">profile in The New York Times</a> with his "Coming 2 America" co-star Arsenio Hall, Murphy said that he and the film's producers "never thought about doing a sequel" to the film that follows Murphy's Prince Akeem as he treks to America - Queens, New York specifically - to find his bride."The way the story ended was kind of like, 'And they lived happily ever after.' Then all this time passed and the movie became this cult thing," Murphy said. "Catchphrases from the movie start working their way into the culture. Stores turning themselves into McDowell's [where Prince Akeem worked.] I see Beyoncé and Jay-Z dressed up like the Zamunda characters for Halloween," Murphy said, referencing the fictional African country where Prince Akeem hailed from. But after Murphy began to receive pitches for a sequel from directors such as Coogler, he started to explore what a "Coming to America" sequel might look like. "[Coogler] had an idea for Michael B. Jordan to play my son and he would be looking for a wife," Murphy recalled. "I was like, then the movie would be about the son, it's not our characters, we already did that. It didn't come together." <div type="image" title="A still from &quot;Coming 2 America&quot;" height="2600" width="3900" msid="81195673" hostid="261"></div>"But all that made me start thinking, maybe we should do a sequel," Murphy continued."Coming 2 America" will debut on Amazon Prime Video on March 5. The comedy reunites Murphy with Barry W. Blaustein and David Sheffield, who wrote the original film. Craig Brewer, who worked with Murphy on 2019's "Dolemite is My Name," directed.The film will see Murphy's Prince Akeem return to New York City when he discovers that he has a long-lost son in Queens.Originally, Murphy told the New York Times that he wanted Tracey Morgan to play his son. But as the film took longer to develop, it was no longer possible because of Morgan's age. "I'm like, I love Tracy and he's the funniest guy in the world. But yo, Ed, y'all about the same age," Hall, who plays Murphy's onscreen best friend Semmi, said.Morgan was instead cast as one of Lavelle's uncles. "Coming 2 America" will bring back many of the original film's stars, including James Earl Jones, Shari Headley, John Amos and Garcelle Beauvais.

As protests broke out into rioting and clashes with police in American cities, including Minneapolis, Atlanta, New York, and Washington DC, Saturday, advisers were counseling the president to "modulate his rhetoric," reported T<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/30/us/politics/trump-threatens-protesters-dogs-weapons.html">he New York Times, citing administration sources. </a>The counsel was ignored and by Saturday night, reported the Times, advisers had dropped plans for Trump to attempt to quell the crisis by addressing the nation on live TV, fearing it could worsen tensions. On Friday, Trump was accused of stoking the unrest that erupted in Minneapolis, where Floyd died last week, when he tweeted that "when the looting starts, the shooting starts."The president was quoting Miami cop Walter Headley whose racist policies sparked race riots in Miami in 1968 — and in an unprecedented step, Twitter restricted the message's visibility for "glorifying violence." <div type="image" title="Minneapolis protests" height="690" width="920" msid="76120640" hostid="261"></div>Early Saturday, Trump had abruptly shifted his tone. In remarks at the launch of the SpaceX rocket in Florida, the president said: "I stand before you as a friend and ally to every American seeking justice and peace, and I stand before you in firm opposition to anyone exploiting this tragedy to loot, rob, attack, and menace. Healing, not hatred; justice, not chaos, are the mission at hand."But in further messages, on Saturday, Trump reverted to stirring partisan and racial divisions, and relishing the prospect of violent reprisals against demonstrators who broke the law. On Saturday, the president tweeted that demonstrators gathering outside the White House would face "vicious dogs" and "ominous weapons" if they attempted to breach the perimeter of the executive residence. DC mayor Muriel Browser accused Trump of stirring up memories of segregationist violence. He <a href="https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/muriel-bowser-trump-tweet-dogs_n_5ed2cf47c5b6900376057a9b?ri18n=true">said</a> the message was "no subtle reminder to African Americans of segregationists who let dogs out on women, children and innocent people in the South."When asked in Florida if he was concerned that he might be exacerbating the situation when he called for his supporters to form a counter-demonstration outside the White House that night, Trump remarked: "No not at all ... I have no idea if they're going to be here."By the way, they love African Americans, they love black people. MAGA loves the black people."Critics were quick to highlight the line the president drew between his supporters and black Americans.On Twitter, he sought to blame the unrest on political opponents and doubled down on attacks on the Democratic mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey."The National Guard has been released in Minneapolis to do the job that the Democrat Mayor couldn't do. Should have been used 2 days ago &amp; there would not have been damage &amp; Police Headquarters would not have been taken over &amp; ruined. Great job by the National Guard. No games!" tweeted the president. In fact, the National Guard was <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/28/us/george-floyd-minneapolis-protests.html">activated in Minneapolis two days ago</a>, but the president may have been referring to a street clearing operation carried out by the National Guard in the city on Saturday night. "How come all of these places that defend so poorly are run by Liberal Democrats? Get tough and fight (and arrest the bad ones). STRENGTH!" he tweeted. He later wrote: "ANTIFA and the Radical Left. Don't lay the blame on others!" — continuing attacks on the radical anti-fascist group that has become one of the favored bogeymen of conservative rhetoric. He also continued attacks on the media — whom in a tweet he again labeled the "Enemy of the People", as reports emerged of protesters and police targetting reporters covering the demonstrations in several US cities. "Much more 'disinformation' coming out of CNN, MSDNC, <a href="https://twitter.com/nytimes" target="_blank" title="" rel="noopener noreferrer">@nytimes</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/washingtonpost" target="_blank" title="" rel="noopener noreferrer">@washingtonpost</a>, by far, than coming out of any foreign country, even combined," Trump wrote. "Fake News is the Enemy of the People!"Read the original article on <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/george-floyd-trump-ignores-advice-to-curb-divisive-rhetoric-nyt-2020-5">Business Insider</a>
