CHICAGO — A Chicago man accused of planning a terrorist attack against a Danish newspaper knew in advance about a plot to attack Mumbai, federal prosecutors charged Monday.

In papers filed in federal court in Chicago, prosecutors said Tahawwur Hussain Rana learned an attack was about to happen while traveling in Dubai days before the Nov. 26, 2008, attack in India that left 166 people dead.

Rana, 48, is charged with providing material support to terrorists. Prosecutors said that after the Mumbai attacks, he told an alleged co-conspirator to pass along his congratulations to the terrorist group.
