Mumbai gunman death sentence upheld
An Indian appeals court has upheld the conviction and death sentence for the only surviving gunman from the 2008 attacks on Mumbai, which killed 166 people and derailed peace talks with neighbouring Pakistan.
“The crime is of enormous proportion,” Justices Ranjana Desai and RB More said while rejecting the appeal by Ajmal Kasab, 22, of Pakistan, who challenged his conviction by a trial court in May.
