World: The lone surviving suspect in the Mumbai attacks confesses

  • He unexpectedly pled guilty in court today. Mohammed Ajmal Kasab was the only suspect in last year’s attack on India’s financial capital to survive. All the other gunmen were shot and killed in the attacks, which killed over 160, including many foreign nationals. Kasab has ties to Pakistan’s Lashkar-e-Tayyiba terrorist group, which has been banned from India since 2002. Despite his plea, prosecutors are skeptical and plan to further analyze his statement. source
