Rahul Bhatt, friend of David Headley.There is a belief that the CIA would like to weaken its economic and political rivals, China, India and Pakistan.
One way to do this would be to get India to attack Pakistan, the ally of China.

On 29 May 2011, Mahesh spoke about Rahul's friend David Headley. (Headley wanted to launch Rahul Bhatt - Times Of India)
Mahesh :
Rahul knew David as an American businessman.
He was an army ranger, that's it...
He only knew David because they shared a common interest in body-building and action movies...
Headley, who lived in Breach Candy, had hobnobbed with the Amercian consulate and always gave my son the impression that he was a CIA plant in India.
And that's why Rahul would also jokingly call him Agent Headley.
Headley asked Rahul to not go to South Mumbai on Nov 26, 2008...
Rahul did talk to David Headley, but much before in 2007 when he befriended him.
This was when the Marriott attack had taken place in Islamabad.
They were discussing the carnage in Islamabad.
Headley made an educated pronouncement to Rahul – 'What is unfolding in Islamabad will also happen in your city – in this part of the world', he said.
This is how the whole thing was narrated to me by Rahul when the question about David speaking to Rahul was raised.
The USA would like to arrange a war between India and Pakistan, in order to weaken both?David Headley was not one to be influenced by jihadi elements: according to Rahul. (May 24, 2011)
Filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt's son Rahul ... doesn't think David Headley is one to be influenced by jihadi elements.
"The investigators have spent just 30 hours speaking to Headley.
"I have spent 1,000 hours with him. I don't think he is one to be influenced by jihadi elements," Rahul said.
According to Rahul: "Headley has been made a 'fall guy' for the Americans, the CIA.
"There is a much deeper issue. Headley is not what he is made out to be."
"Headley was trained by Americans in the art of surveillance and was sent in by their Drug Enforcement Agency," he said, claiming that Headley was a "CIA terrorist".
"He was not a jihadi element, who believed in sacrificing 1,000 lives," Rahul said.
"In fact, we used to joke with him, calling him "Agent Headley" because we suspected him to be a CIA guy," he said.
