This is the only surviving gunman of the massacre in Mumbai. Seconds after this picture was taken, 21-year-old Azam Amir Kasav began to kill.
He and the terror cell’s leader began their attacks at the city’s Chhatrapati Shivaji rail station.
They later hijacked two cars, before police caught them. During two days of questioning, Kashmiri-born Kasav, who used the alias Ajmal Kasab, told police: ‘I have no regrets’.
He is said to have told officers the cell was to seek out ‘white targets, preferably British and American’.
The terrorists thought they would come out alive and had an escape route, added Kasav.
He revealed that the ten terrorists, who were highly trained in marine assault and crept into the city by boat, had planned to blow up the Taj Mahal Palace hotel after first executing British and American tourists and then taking hostages. He then added that their intention was to kill 5,000 people.
Mercifully, the group, armed with plastic explosives, underestimated the strength of the 105-year-old building’s solid foundations.
As it is, their deadly attacks have left close to 200 confirmed dead, with the toll expected to rise to nearly 300 once the hotel has been fully searched by security forces.
Yesterday, Kasav chillingly went through details of Wednesday night’s killing spree across the city, 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, Kasav, who suffered only minor injuries, told medical staff: ‘I do not want to die. Please put me on saline.’

Their plan fell far short of what they had intended, thank God!
Azam Amir Kasav should be kept alive and in a holding cell, by himself until he is an old man, and I mean OLD. This individual (and his partners) are the scum of the earth! They must be removed from society forever. There are others that were aware of what these individuals were up to and they too should be captured and punished for crimes against humanity.
Whats with the orange band in hand? Orange color symbolizes Hindus in Indian and Sri Lankan flags.
well the orange band can be a “livestrong bracelet” as well
its very popular among college goers in mumbai, b’lore etc,….
remember kasav was found with a fake college i card…
he must have put it to easily mix with the crowd… well he i 21 after all…
