Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists reached Mumbai on a hijacked fishing trawler from a Pakistani port in Karachi. While nine terrorists were killed in the four-day operation by the armed forces, the lone terrorist Ajmal Kasab was captured alive and sentenced to death at Yerwada Central Jail in Pune in 2012.The terrorists hijacked cars, including a police van, and split into different groups to carry out the attacks.

HOW INDIAN REACTED TO MUMBAI ATTACK 2008 Mumbai attacks shocked Indians like no other terror attack before. Dramatic pictures of the city’s iconic Taj Hotel in flames, explosions, fire-fights, a prolonged hostage crisis and the rescue were telecast live and non-stop for three days. Many called it “India’s 9/11.”In fact, many questioned why Kasab was kept alive in jail for so long with taxpayers’ money.

Every year on the anniversary of the attacks, survivors and members of victims’ families would ask when justice would be delivered.Surveillance cameras caught Kasab prowling with a gun in the train station that night, where 55 people were killed.
