WASHINGTON — FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III called off his trip to India this week where he was expected to brief officials on developments in the Mumbai attack investigation, the IANS news organization reported.
The FBI told ticklethewire.com that Mueller had planned to visit New Delhi on Wednesday and go to other areas in the region. However, Mueller postponed the trip after Sunday’s development with Osama bin Laden so he could attend meetings on the matter.
Mueller is expected to go to the region later this year before he steps down on Sept. 4.
