"I have a feeling in my bones that Headley was not acting alone," stated Chidambaram while in a discussion with US officials, claimed a US embassy cable, who gave out Chidambaram's statement in the site.

The leaks also claimed that though the Government of India was happy with US' co-operation with India in handling the case of Headley, Chidambaram stressed for direct access to Headley. The cables also suggested that Chidambaram wanted access to Headley just for "appearance sake".
