My Mumbai Bleeds
Monday, December 01, 2008
The Mumbai terror attack has surely shaken us all. It was the most audacious terrorist attacks in the history of Independent India.
At least 197 people had been killed in the attacks and 293 wounded. Among the dead were 121 Indian civilians, 17 policemen and 34 foreigners. Hundreds of family deeply impacted. Mothers lost sons, children lost parents.
Something unbelievable happened in Mumbai on those 4 days.. people were left indefensible, only silent spectator...
Reporters and bystanders duck as gunshots echo from the nearby Taj hotel.
Tourists and Mumbaikars both crouch as shots ring out from the Taj, the city's most famous hotel.
Hotel staff embrace after being rescued. Over a night of coordinated attacks across Mumbai, at least 100 people are confirmed dead and dozens of others, including foreigners, were held hostage in some of the city's best-known hotels.
A policeman walks among the discarded belongings of civilians transiting through Mumbai's Chattrapati Shivaji Railway terminus where gunmen opened fire by the ticket counters at night on Nov. 26.
A relative of a victim breaks down outside St. George's hospital.
All our prayers go out to those people who got killed, their families and to the police officers who gave up their own lives to save the others . . . Rest in Peace
