In November last year, the world stood still and watched in shock as terrorists went on a rampage in the bustling city of Mumbai in India. Came across this excellent but disturbing documentary by Channel 4/BBC on the 26/11 terrorist attacks in Mumbai. Called 'Terror in Mumbai', it basically consists of eyewitness accounts, clips from CCTV cameras, and other never seen before footage.
Video Part 1:
Part 2, Part 3, Part4 and Part 5.
Further food for thought:
- Reports of a plan for a Mumbai-style attack on London:
- Irfan Hussain has an editorial in The Dawn on this.
- An interview with Richard Watson, the BBC journalist behind this documentary.
- An Indian expert, B Raman, reacts to the BBC documentary.
The sad thing is even after all these months, it’s business as usual as far as apprehending the culprits are concerned. Pakistan just released the main suspect.
