26/11

Finally, the much awaited Mumbai terror attack verdict is given today – he is charged for committing a series of attacks that lead to the death of about 62 people. However the final fate of Ajmal Kasab is yet to be read out. Don’t know how long we will have to wait to hear what the judge says about Kasab. Will he be hanged? Or pronounced life-long imprisonment? We still have to wait with utmost patience to know his future life course.

It seems to be only that day, when the terrorists came by sea and ransacked the industrial capital of India – Mumbai. They chose South Mumbai as their target destination and went on a butcher expedition, shooting whoever came in front of their bullets.

So many innocent lives got lost. Many came with their wife, kids or parents at the CST to bid good-bye to their near and dear ones who were travelling outside the city for some reason – who knew this good-bye, will fall so heavy on them - taking their lives altogether.

God forbid, these acts of terrorism should never happen anytime in future in India, or in any other country around the world. We love our dear ones, and seeing their life end in just a matter of time, are so shocking and unbearable. No words are enough to express one’s sorrow and loss.

In the course of the November 26 deadliest terror attack, top-notch police officers like Hemant Karkare, Salaskar and such others had to lay their lives while fighting bravely with the gunmen.

There is no clue as to what would have happened if Ajmal Kasab could not be captured live (with all his group men dying on the spot, killed by the Mumbai police). Perhaps, this 17 months old case or trails would have never come up.

Last but not the least, all of us Indians wants a proper and most deserved judgment on Kasab. The judge much pronounce a verdict that would make the terrorist think for at least once, what kind of crime he has done, and this is how every ‘bad’ man is punished for his sins.
