CCTV footage showing the moment when two of the Mumbai gunmen were captured. The footage shows them being beaten by angry locals. One was killed the other captured, wounded but alive.
Mohammad Ajmal Amir Qasab, 21, claimed the bloody three-day rampage was the work of just 10 Pakistani terrorists and an Indian gangster.
He said the attacks were meticulously planned six months ago, and were intended to kill 5000 people indiscriminately.
He revealed that the terrorists, who were highly trained and crept into the Indian city by boat, had planned to blow up the Taj Mahal hotel after executing British and US tourists and taking hostages.
But the group underestimated the strength of the building's foundations.
Their deadly attacks have left close to 200 confirmed dead, with the toll expected to rise significantly once the hotel has been fully searched.
Yesterday, Qasab chillingly went through details of Wednesday night's killing spree, which ended when he was cornered by police. He pretended to be dead, which probably saved his life.
It was only when he was being transferred to hospital by ambulance that his accompanying officer noticed he was still breathing.
Once inside Nair Hospital, Qasab, who suffered only minor injuries, told medical staff: "I do not want to die. Please put me on saline."
As Indian commandos ended the bloody siege at the Taj yesterday by killing the last three Islamic gunmen, Kasav was dispassionately detailing the mayhem.
He described how its mastermind briefed the group to "target whites, preferably Americans and British".
Qasab described how he and an accomplice sprayed machine-gun fire around a busy railway station, killing dozens of people, before intending to move to the exclusive district of Malabar Hill, where they planned to "take VIPs hostage".
Police say Qasab confessed to being a member of the Pakistani terror group Lashkar-e-Toiba, which has denied involvement in the carnage, and claimed he and the others were trained in the Muslim country.
According to the account of Qasab's interrogation, the terrorists were trained over five months in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, then had a month off before the attacks.
Qasab and the nine other terrorists, who communicated using BlackBerry mobiles, began their journey to Mumbai on a merchant vessel owned by Mumbai mobster Dawood Ibrahim. Ibrahim is on Forbes' list of the 10 most wanted criminals and is believed to hiding out in Karachi, Pakistan.
He's also believed to have ties to Pakistan's intelligence agency, as well as to al-Qaida.
Ibrahim fled India 15 years ago after being accused of bombings in Mumbai. He runs D-Company, a crime syndicate that reaps hundreds of millions of dollars each year from arms and drug smuggling.
Once on board, the terrorists were each given eight hand-grenades, an AK-47 rifle, an automatic pistol and ammunition. And in anticipation of a long siege, they also carried dried fruit.
Qasab told police that the group then hijacked a fishing trawler near the maritime boundary between Pakistan and India.
Four of its crew are missing while the fifth has been found dead, apparently beheaded.
On November 23, about 500km from Mumbai, the insurgents were intercepted by two coastguard officers. The group hoisted a white flag and allowed the men to board their boat.
According to Qasab, one of the militants then attacked one of the officers, slitting his throat and throwing him overboard. The other man was forced to help the group reach their destination before being executed near Mumbai.
When they reached the city, the two groups split up. Four men went to to the Taj hotel, two to the Jewish centre of Nariman House, Qasab and another man set off by taxi towards the railway station, and two headed for the Leopold restaurant.
Kasav told investigators they continued their killing spree by attacking a petrol station and blowing up a taxi.
"I have done right,' he told police. "I have no regrets."
They say fight fire with fire. So why can't some muslims be trained from India to do the same to the Pakis. After all they are from the same religion and can also enjoy 72 virgins in Heaven as well as prove that they are loyal citizens of India.

they can show u all the funny and idiotic videos, they can even bring an idiot guest wearing red cap and ask him to say crap abt India.
why doesnt the pakistan govt take steps against terrorism when Indian govt asks them to do?and they r ready to obey wat US says to them.
i absolutely know that India AND pakistan ,both r facing this curse, TERRORISM, but d prob. is that PAKISTAN is promoting it and also suffering from it.
Your cursing and bitter remarks is really helping the situation right? Please learn to not jump into every situation in anger and with bad words, it really shows who you are. I am very sorry for you losing someone. I do care for your feelings. Your freind is in a better place. He didnt die in vain. God is with him.
On the other hand, is this what you want to show your freind? Be a freind who is moaning his loss and meditating on the good times spent together.
While there is much talk about intelligence failures,commandos etc...let`s not forget these poor unsung heros.Low ranking constables.
Their attitude reminds me of Tennysons "charge of the light brigade"
Not tho' the soldier knew,Someone had blunder'd:
Their's not to make reply,
Their's not to reason why,
Their's but to do and die:
Honor the charge they made,
Honor the Light Brigade
The policemen at the barricade ran to the passenger side.2nd terrorist Ajmal was by now lying on his back with an AK-47 . As soon as Ombale, who was leading the pack, opened the door, Kasab let loose a burst of fire. Ombale, riddled with bullets, caught the barrel of the gun and fell on Kasab, preventing him from doing further damage. The other policemen beat Kasab unconscious. Ombale, who had just four years till retirement, died on way to ospital. "He blinked at me one last time' Kadam said.

The primitive war cry was all they had to boost their nerves. But that didn't deter them, especially Ombale, who in the unequal battle had nothing but a lathi But the police charge unnerved them enough to send them crashing into the divider.Assistant sub-inspector Tukaram Ombale, who led the charge, paid the ultimate price.

In an act that can be called either hare-brained or heroic, nine policemen at the barricade, wielding only lathis, and 2 with self loading rifles charged while roaring in unison. Inside the car were two terrorists with AK-47 rifles and grenades. They had just gunned down scores of commuters and several policemen as they shot their way from CST to Chowpatty.
Gimme a Break!
Al-Qaeda on amphetamines! Indias fake 911
Lashkar-e-Tayyiba operates with Pakis military ISI, which works closely with CIA, (they literally appoint the ISI Chief & have more control over them than the Paki government)
At least one of the attackers was British!
The US media indelibly serves the interests of the US intelligence apparatus
The op has the fingerprints of a paramilitary-intelligence operation
show us the proof and we will beleive you. Put them on World Medias. If you beleive what your media and governament is telling the truth then give us a proof.
