While convicting Mohammad Ajmal Kasab of mass murder, criminal conspiracy and waging of war against India among other offences, special judge M L Tahaliyani placed considerable reliance on Kasab’s crucial confession recorded by a magistrate. However, the judge, on Monday, noted that he accepted all that Kasab confessed, but for ‘a small portion of it’. Mumbai Mirror looks at two vital parts of Kasab’s 42-page confession that cut no ice with the court.

The Untouchables: Bombay Police after 26/11
Ref : ndtv.com
November 11, 2009
On a overcast April morning in the compound of a police barracks in central Bombay, a team of 6 young men in commando clothing, armed with AK-47’s and pistols, walked, crouched and lunged for our cameras. They simulated combat at close quarters: how to enter a building, guard its entrance, take control of the stairwell and burst into a room occupied by fictional terrorists. They were members of the Quick Response Team, or QRT, their existence a challenge to the much repeated cliché of a city police unprepared for the commando style attacks of last November. The QRT was created in 2003, after a series of bomb blasts in Bombay, precisely to counter a terrorist attack. Not to guard exits or form outer cordons or manage crowds, but to engage the bad guys. They were selected from among the constabulary for their youth and fitness. They trained with the army in Pune. They went to Manesar to train with the NSG. They have AK-47’s, 9mm pistols, bulletproof vests, imported helmets. They are divided into teams on multiple shifts, so that at any time of the day or night, one team of 12 commandoes is always on call, 24×7.
