26/11 Mumbai Planning

So, Gautam Adani who was moving towards the lobby exactly at that time he stops and moves to have a coffee. . .

. When David Hindley came to India, then he meets Mahesh Bhatt's son Rahul Bhatt at the gym. Along with that, it was also said that when you go to hotel then leave all the Muslims there.

And rest of the 2 terrorists, sit behind in the boat so that and the main role is played by the 2 school friends in US A few days before the attack, US had tracked the co-ordinates of Al Hussaini Ship they get to know that, the aircraft in which these commandos were to be taken is in Chandigarh and isn't available. Commandos were late, helicopter is landing here commandos haven't arrived yet, marine agents are elsewhere 26/11 - We already know about the attack on Mumbai but where did it actually start - who gathered all these terrorists & how did they start the planning? Where were all these trainings fixed?

When the attack was supposed to be on 27th September then why was it shifted to 26/11? And at last time, why was the security of India's sea border reduced? What was the coordinated plan of the entire attack?

How was it executed? After reaching Mumbai, why 2 out of 10 terrorists stay behind in the boat? The smallest detail that Kasab confirmed at the court The intel shared by the US & the chargesheet submitted in India related to this case whatever is mentioned in it - I'll tell all the details - as it is - in this video.

So, it was year 1971 and there was a military college in Pakistan named Cadet College Hasan Abdal where 2 boys studied. One named - Tahawwur Hussain Rana and other named Daood Sayed Gilani these two were in the same wing of college. So, they were both good friends.

Now among them, Tahawwur Hussain Rana becomes doctor in the Pakistan Military. Then after that marries a Canadian Citizen and moves to Canada and opens a visa consultancy service named - First World Immigration Service - there. Then, in future he opens up a his branch in areas of Toronto, New York, Chicago as well of this company.

His School friend Daood Sayed Gilani and his father - Sayed Salim Gilani was in a high post in Pakistan. The diplomats of Pakistan had meets with them & mother of Daood Sayed Gilani was - Alice Serrill Headley. She was from US.

His father had married a girl from US. So, his mother had come to Pakistan in the beginning but after some time, she took divorce, left Pakistan and went back to US. Now, Daood Sayed Gilani was fair in color.

His one eye was brown & other blue. So, he didn't look normal in between Pakistanis he seemed bit different. All of which I'm telling you, might seem irrelevant but in future, the main cause of this entire attack is related to it.

So, until 7 years, this Daood Sayed Gilani lives in Pakistan, then in 1977 even he goes to US as well to his mother. There's a place in US called Philadelphia where he starts staying but even after moving to US, he used to keep in touch with Pakistan. And traded co*aine, dr*g & was himself a huge addict of these things.

Due to these reasons, he was arrested in US twice, but later he was released and in until around year 2000 used to do these things from US. But after a year, in year 2001 his motive shifts a little. He comes in touch with Hafiz Saeed of Pakistan's Lashker-e-Taiba.

and he comes in touch with Hafiz at such a time when Hafiz Saeed had already done multiple attacks on India. And was planning a new and large attack. Now, when these two come in touch then Hafiz Saeed felt that Daood Sayed Gilani is useful.

due to hi appearance. He felt that Daood Sayed Gilani cane be used in a different way. And in future, how do they use him and what role does he play in Mumbai attack I'll tell about that.

So, in year 2001 comes in touch with Hafiz Saeed and after a year in 2002 Hafiz Saeed calls Daood Gilani to Pakistan & serves him a Dawwat & an introductory training is held which is called as Dawwat - the headquarter of Lashkar-e-Taiba in Muridke - it was held there. It falls just outside of Lahore. Now, after this training his advanced training is also done that is held in POK's Muzaffarabad and due to these reasons Daood Sayed Gilani comes to Pakistan 5 times and meets Lashkar's leadership.

February 2002, August 2002 April 2003, August 2003 and December 2003 he comes Pakistan in these timelines. Now Kasab, ISIS have been other named of terror, but how did India and US end them and how did they saved their citizens, you can hear it in Forty Six India Rescue operation against ISIS. I have heard this audiobook in Kuku FM.

The entire incident has been narrated in a detailed interesting way that how did India with the helped of embassy tracked GPS, saved the lives of 46 hostage nurses.

Link is in the description. So coming back to the topic. All the things that were happening - he was called repeatedly he was trained again and again & Hafiz wanted to use all of it against India for Mumbai attack but didn't tell him.

He was just told that he'll be used for Kashmir. And the operation that was going against India - the attack that was to be held on Mumbai its funding was done by Pakistan's ISI - for this, Interpol had issued warrant in 2010 against two Pakistani Army. So, after this when all the trainings were complete of Daood Sayed Gilani he was transferred to Lashkar-e-Taiba's foreign recruitment wing which was headed by Sajid Mir.

So, when Daood Sayed Gilani is transferred in this wing Sajid Mir tells Daood that you don't have to go to Kashmir your role is decided to be something else, for now go back to US & change your name. Rest of the details will be given after you reach there. Daood Sayed Gilani does the same.

He goes back to US and uses his mother's last name changes his name to David Coleman Headley and with the same details - means after changing the name in year 2005, David applies for passport & with - his name is changed, his nationality is changed his mother's name - he seems proper US citizen. And he even gets the passport with the changed name. Indian Agencies believe that, in this Pakistan's ISI had helped otherwise in US without any verification, changing name, making a passport for such a man who has already been arrested by the US government twice due to dr*gs.

So, after becoming David headley he lives in US as it is. In the beginning I told you that, he had a friend in school Tahawwur who went to Canada and was running a Visa company in some locations of US. So, David meets Tahawwur and as soon as he says Lashkar-e-Taiba they share information in a co-ordinated way.

So, the Lashkar in US was doing all this. Along with it in Pakistan, at the same time they were recruiting boys from different cities, who are young, not married, who don't have anyone in their families, who aren't educated. Such boys were recruited.

Now at the same time, in 2005 there was boy of age 21 named Mohammed Ajmal Amir Kasab, shortly, Ajmal Kasab. He lived in Faridkot, DipalPur, District - Okara, Punjab, Pakistan. It was Eid of 2005, he asked some clothes from his father but his father refused.

So, in anger he left the house and he had a friend - Muzaffar Lal Khan He started doing theft and taking bribery together with him & for these acts once he went to buy a gun in Rawalpindi and there he meets a member of Jama'at-ud-Da'wah which is the political wing of Lashkar-e-Taiba & there's another story here in which its said that - Kasab's father had sold him to Lashkar-e-Taiba for money and on a successful operation, he was given Rs 1. 5 lakh. So, similarly like Ajmal Lashkar-e-Taiba found total 32 boys who were young, they had left home, unmarried, un-educated.

They were gathered and formed a team out of them and made a plan ready against India. Now, after this their training starts. Lashkar's training happens in 3 phases, there's a last phase as well.

So, forming their team their tarining starts. So, the 1st phase of training is called Daura-e-Suffa. This is the training of 1st phase for total 21 days.

And before starting the training of this phase, all the Sunnis of this group were converted. Then everyone was given a religious training, they woke up in the morning early, did P. T.

and this phase had basic religious trainings. And the Ustads of the training of 1st phase were Faihdullah or Mufti Ustad - means trainer and in the 1st phase they meet with Hafiz Saeed and Zakiur Rehman The boys selected from the 1st phase of Daura-e-Suffa gets the letter of Ustad Fahdullah - 'Bhai Vasool Daura-e-Amma' which means the 2nd phase - Daura-e-Amma that was supposed to be done in Mansera Markas they're qualified for it & this letter was for that. Now this 2nd phase - Daura-e-Amma is for 21 days - for which they travel 12 hours in bus and are taken to Mansera and then from Mansera, they're taken to the mountain where they've their physical training to assemble guns and explosives, maps reading, using satellite phones reading their codes, using first aid - everything is taught.

Few days after completing the training of 2nd phase they are even sent back home for a week and during this time, when Ajmal went back home then he told his mother what he was doing. And Ajmal taught Karate to his friends that he had learnt Now, their 1 week ends and comes back. Then they're called to Lahkar-e-Taiba's office which was located in model town district - Okara and then from there, they're sent to POK's Chehalbandi Hills which is in Muzzafarabad.

for the 3rd phase. And this 3rd phase was the toughest. Its name was Daura-e-Khassa In the 3rd phase, training for advanced combat is given & the settlement of that area is called Baitul Mujaheeden.

From here, the attacks on Kashmir and India are planned and training is given. And when India retaliates, these areas are targeted. Now, the training of the 3rd phase was advanced, so their Ustaad was changed.

Their ustaad here, was Abu Muavia & Abu Hanzalajo - who gave them explosives and guns for hours and told them to shoot without being tired. They trained them & gave them another training in which for 60 hours without eating anything they had to climb heavy mountain. This training runs for long, around 1.

5 months in which lot of people are eliminated. In this last phase, there were 10 such boys who ran away between the training. In this entire training Lashkar's head, Hafiz Sayed, Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi and Kaffa, they all used to visit and monitor & when they used to come then all the Ustaads and boys used to salute them in military style.

So, after the end of the 3rd phase, 15 boys are left & they're given the training of the 4th phase named - Duara-e-ribat they were intelligence training. That of anyone is following, then what should be done. What to do when you don't get location & coordinates.

In this, 2 other boys run away & total 10 are left and in August 2008, only 10 boys had completed this training means - in August 2008 their training completes. The training that took from the beginning had total 15 Ustaads - that is total 15 trainers. These are the names of those 15 trainers.

In between, a man named Major general Saheb also used to visit everyone used to call him major. He is told to be from the Pakistan Army. His real name isn't known until today's date.

Now, after finishing this training there were total 10 people - whose strength was amazing who overshadowed others in every round. And among these 10, Ismail was at number 1 that is why he was made Amin of the Mumbai attack means the head of those 10 boys. So, total 10 boys were selected.

These are their real names and real address. If you know, there's a buddy system in the military. Similarly, they were also paired in groups of two which they called as budias that means there were total 5 teams there were 2 people in a team.

Like Kasab and Ismail were in one team. And these 5 teams, attack on Mumbai in a coordinated way from different directions I'll tell about that as well. But these 10 boys that were finalised - a month later, on September 2008 they are taken to Karachi via train and they're secretly lodged in Azizabad Mohalla.

This area was near the sea so, their marine training starts. In this training, they are lodged in two boats and there was a man named Hakim Sahab gives them training for 3 days in which - understanding the depth of the sea understanding the directions, understanding nautical miles, they're even taught to catch fish and swimming, each and everything is taught. At the end of this training, which place do they've to target, which road to take - everything was taught via videos.

And the main role is played by two school friends sitting in US - David Headley and Tahawwur Rana. Tahawwur Rana who was running his Visa consultancy named First World Immigration Services. Headley meets him and they make the plan that if they need to regularly visit India then our company, needs to open a branch there & then in future their Visa consultancy company.

They open their branch in Mumbai & now David Headley looked like American, he had a US passport. And a US company was opening its branch in India, then there wasn't any problem in opening the company. And I'm not just involving the name of Pakistan everywhere the Headley's case that was running in US - I've given the copy of its judgement & chargesheet in the description whose entire investigation was done by US officers do confirm it once.

Now after this, David Headley lands by the excuse of Visa work on September 2006 at India for the first time. This is his photo when he left Airport. After reaching here, he did extensive survilience - photo, video tapes, gathered data of many TVs Taj Mahal Hotel, Oberoi Hotel, The Leopold Cafe Nariman House, CST train station and along with all of it where to land, where would the landing be feasible - he made all the videos and sent to Pakistan & he didn't do all of this once.

He went on February 2007, then September 2007 after this, Lashkar's leadership told that when you'll go next time, you would go by water. And he needs to capture all the routes & take even the smallest details. And Headley does the same.

Next time in April 2008, when Headley visits - he goes via waterway and shoots video of every single thing & notes even the slightest detail and gives it to Pakistan. And its not that - he was making videos only in India. All the Big celebrities in India, politicians - he also tried to make relation with them.

As July 2008 David Headley came to India He met Mahesh Bhatt's son Rahul Bhatt at the gym and made friends. In fact, indirectly, Headley once while driving warns Rahul Bhatt that something big is going to happen in Mumbai and when actually Mumbai is attacked, then even after that David Headley emailed Mahesh Bhatt's son Rahul Bhatt. This is the copy of that email.

So, all the footages sent by David headley - the GPS coordinates, photographs, videos - were all used there was a man named Zarar Shah in Lashkar, who was a computer expert. He made a PPT, report and explained these 10 boys that - who will go where & when will he attack and all these things were explained on a huge TV and 3D Google map. That which buddy pair will go to which location, how much crowd will be there what will be the way of attack, all these things were explained.

Now, all of it was completed. After this, all these people were waiting for the date of attack on Mumbai. And after this the date comes 13th of September, 2008.

This day Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi comes and tells them on 27th of September, 2008 is Roza and on this day the attack will be carried out. All the 10 boys become very happy, that they will now do the attack but what happens is at this particular time, India's Raw gets some intel due to which several places were raided. Mumbai and Delhi was on Red Alert, so by watching all this news Lashkar's leadership, decide that the date of 27th September isn't feasible so, they cancel the attack on this date.

After this attack was cancelled, all the boys were kept in Azizabad and all these people for the next date & they will go for the attack. Now, after this on 21st of November, 2008 - Lakhvi comes again announces that on 26th of November, 2008 they will attack on Mumbai. So, on 21st its announced and on the next day 22nd November, 2008 in morning, Lakhvi arrives at sea with thise 10 boys.

They're given Indian clothes they were Kalava in their hand. They're given Indian phones and SIM & they're told that they are only to be opened when they reach India. They're given same cash, so that they can take a taxi there.

They're given packets of dry fruit, GPS, satellite phone - everything is given. They're also given Fake IDs. These are the fake IDs and details & after giving all these things they're told that when you'll go there, then you'll see large crowd - so don't think, who is Muslim and who is Hindu try killing everyone.

If you meet Americans then, target them more. But when you go into the hotel then leave the Muslims there. And with all these instructions Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi Zarrar Shah, Abu Hamza and Kafa hug them see them off in the morning of 22nd November, 2008 at 7 o' clock to attack on Mumbai.

In the beginning, they sat on a small boat they travel for 1. 5 hours - after that, its 9 o'clock and around 9 am a ship named AL Hussaini arrives all of them transfer in it. And spending their entire night in this Al-Hussaini ship, they move forward.

Now, next day on 23rd November, 2008 at 12 o' clock they see a small Indian boat from afar the boat was named Kuber. So, they wave to it that their engine belt has broken they need help and as soon as the fishermen in the boat comes to their help they hijack the boat. In this 'Kuber' boat - there were 4 people - among which they kill 3 of them and the one who was driving the main boat - named Amarchand they keep him with us to show the direction.

This Amarchand also has a story 6 months ago, mistakenly crossed India's border and went to Pakistan and spent 6 months in Jail. So its also said that, maybe he also has a link that when he was in the Pakistan Jail then when does he arrive, from which location - because its a not a co-incidence that the person who was locked up for 6 months & catching his boat, was a little troublesome. There was another thing that, in 1993 the Mumbai attack that took place the RDX that came, took this route.

So, this area was pumped up with security it was detained through helicopters, but in 2006 the entire exercise, monitoring of this area was stopped. In fact, few days before the attack US had already shared the coordinates of Al Hussaini ship to India that something is going to happen at the coast. But even after that, no action takes place.

In fact, National security advisor M. K. Narayana gave intel to Indian Navy's Admiral - Suresh Mehta and Indian coast guard that something is going to happen but even after that no action was taken.

So, after that the Indian Boat - named Kuber - they continuously move forward comes the date 26th November, 2008 it was 4 o' clock in the morning. And they could see the buildings of Mumbai from afar. So, they understand that Mumabi is near.

They had fear that Amarchand that they had kept hostage might scream and call the coast guard. So, they kill him as well and keep him at the back of the boat. After this, they leave the Kuber boat E40JMHL - this was the model number of the speedboat that they catch whose serial number was 1020015 and as per plan, they switch on their Indian mobile phone.

Even though they don't get the network that time and after that they move toward Mumbai & from here Mumbai was 4 natucal miles far. The boat was driven by Ismail and Nazir was looking at direction through GPS. So, after driving this speedboat for 1.

5 hours it was around 9 o' clock at night. They reach at Badhwar Park of Kolaba, Mumbai there was a fisherman colony. This location was decided very leniently firstly the sandy slope was 10 m from the water with which it would be easy for them to come down.

Secondly, this was a fishermen colony, there was a chawl. So, after arriving, they won't be suspected much. If they would've landed in any other area then, there were more chances to be suspected.

Secondly, the place at which they landed - when they walked a few meters from there, they reached main road from where you can get taxi for 24 hours. And if you look at the location of attacks from this place - like CST that was earlier called VTS station it was 3. 5 km.

Taj Hotel was 1 km away, Leopold cafe was at 900 m, so this location was chosen very leniently. Now, the plan was that Ismail and Kasab who were pair 1 they'll go to CST station(earlier called VTS station) Shoaib aur Nazir Ahmad will go to Leopold cafe. Javed and Hafiz Arshad will go to Taj Hotel.

Imran Babar and Nasir will go to Nariman House and Fahadullah and Abdul Rehman will go to Oberoi Hotel. So, as soon as their speedboat reaches at Badhwar Park, Kolaba so, from this point 8 terrorist land down. And the rest of the two terrorists sit back in the boat.

They sit back because they had to go to Oberoi hotel, so instead of taxi if they will take a U turn from this boat, they'll reach faster. That's why they sat back in the boat. Look at it, Oberoi Hotel is at this side from Badhwar Park.

So, they take this boat and depart for Oberoi hotel. Now, at this time, in this Chawl - there was man named Bharat Tamore At 9:15 - he was an employee of the Taj hotel, as soon as he leaves from his home for duty he sees a boat from which 10 boys, of age 20-25, land. Rest 2, stay back in the boat.

He even stops these boys and asks them where they're going some say that, we're students. But then, Kasab answers in anger that - mind your own business. And in future, Bharat Tamore showed courage and told police as well That some people have landed but that time police doesn't take it seriously.

If that time, police would've arrived then tis attack might've been stopped. So, after this all these 8 people take the main road. And go out for their target.

Imran babar and Nasir's target was Nariman house which was near, so they leave by walking. Shoaib and Nazir Ahmad take taxi to the Leopold cafe. And just behind them, Hafiz and Javed leave for Taj Mahal hotel.

And the last pair Kasab and Ismail khan, take the taxi to CST station. When they take the taxi, then Ismail sits in front and Kasab at the back and Ismail involves the driver in talks & Kasab at the back sets a 9 Volt battery in the b*mb and timing of 1 hour 15 minutes & fist it below the seat of the driver. Now, after 16-17 minutes later - the taxi reaches CST station Ismail and Kasab get down.

Now, after leaving them the taxi moves forward. And Mr Laxmi Narayan Goel takes the taxi after some time & as soon as the taxi Vile Parle, an explosion takes place. Laxmi Narayan and his driver lose their lives and the people around get badly injured.

Kasab and Ismail, it was 9:30 pm at night at this particular time, they had reached CST station & they were angry because the CD they'd watched, the videos showed large crowd but when they reached this station at night, then the crowd was very less due to which they were very angry they switched on the mobile and tried calling Abu Hamza but there was no network so they couldn't talk. Even after that, they enter the station. Firstly Kasab looks for a washroom he goes there, he fits battery in the b*mb and gets it ready, after that Ismail goes to the washroom and makes the weapons ready along with b*mbs.

And comes out of the washroom & both of them get ready start attacking. In the beginning, Ajmal was firing the bullets from the gun and Ismail was throwing grenade from his bag. The people that survived from there told that, Ajmal was laughing like crazy while shooting guns.

As if playing a video game. Police attacks on them as well but they were showering bullets on them they used to throw grenade, so they knew that Police couldn't win with weapons they had, so they were confident. And in that time, Vishnu Dattaram starts announcing in the station that all the passengers should save themselves and get out of the station.

And vacate the station. Ismail and Kasab entered the CST station at around 9:30 and until 10:45 they emptied 6 magazines and finished a bag of grenade. After that the entire CST station was empty.

58 people lost their lives 104 people were injured and 8 police officers were martyred. Now, after this they take foot bridge from platform number 1 and come out to Badruddin Tayabji marg earlier, they try to find a taxi but when they don't get any - they go to a car parking and try opening a car but when that doesn't open as well and nothing works, then they start walking on that road. Until the police follows them and does a heavy attack on them.

They run to the Cama hospital in the opposite direction and enters its boundary. It was around 10:50 and they climb on the boundary and attack on the police from there, shoot bullets throw grenades & police doesn't understands for the first 3 hours, they thought that maybe this is a gang war. Now the Ismail and Kasab, they had entered the Cama hospital but in the beginning they didn't knew that its a hospital, later they see the board on the Cama hospital this hospital was only for women and children.

So they could hear the cries of women and children from far so, they start travelling up the floow of Cama hospital. Since, it wasn't in their plan they didn't have any map of it or nay details so, they tried to entered random places and kill everyone but the good thing there was that all the people had locked up all the gates & grilled gates of lobby had been locked as well and they closed the light. They wandered for 1 hour in that hospital & then when they got frustrate, they jump of the hospital wall and land on the side road.

They were told that, after attacking CTS station they had to reach Malabar hill and attack there. So, they were trying to take a taxi there. But the road was entirely empty and it was night time and it was very dark, so they couldn't do much.

On the other hand from Police control room Hemant Karkare, who was the head of Mumbai ATS gets a call that such attack has happened. At that time, he was having dinner, so he takes ACP Ashok Kamte Vijay Salaskar along with him to CST station, then he gets information in the wireless that two people were seen with guns in the side alley near Cama hospital who attacked CST station. Hemant Karkare takes a white college vehicle and the place where he got the information that Kasab and Ismail were seen, he leaves for that place.

This white college vehicle was driven by Vijay Salaskar beside him Hemant Karkare and Ashok Kamte were seated and at the back Head constabel, Arun Jadhav and 3 other policemen were sitting with them. Now, as soon as this vehicle reaches that area Kasab and Ismail see it as well, they hide in bushes as soon as it gets near they attack blindly. People fired from inside the vehicle as well & it hits both of Kasab's hands and after that Kasab and Ismail, empties two magazines on that Police vehicle.

And from this side, Police guns weren't that advanced - after waiting some time when Ismail and Kasab feels that no one is alive, they get near to the vehicle they were searching for a vehicle for a long time because they had to go to Malabar hills so, from the driver seat -Hemant Karkare, Ashok Kamte and Vijay Salaskar who were martyred, they throw them out. They even go at the back so that they could throw the police out of it but the back door was locked. So, they leave it as it is.

After sitting in the driver seat, they leave for Malabar hill - they fee; that all the policemen behind are dead but the head constable Arun Jadhav at the back was breathing as he was only shot on the shoulders and rest of them had died. He had just fallen on them. Yogesh Patil was alive as well but he fainted.

So, Arun Jadhav was listening to Ismail and Kasab's entire conversation Ismail was riding the vehicle, Kasab was firing on the roads blindly. The tyre had been teared off but they were driving at full speed. Arun Jadhav was listening everything but he wasn't reacting.

The revolver was only few inches away from his hand, he even thought once that he should pick up the revolver and hit on their head but even he was shot in his shoulder and leg so, he couldn't pick it up even he wwanted to. In between, Yogesh Patil was shot, he was unconscious, he had a mobile in his pocket which rings suddenly, so Kasab looks back and fires due to which he gets martyred as well. Now, the tyre of this vehicle had been badly torn out.

It couldn't run ahead and a Skoda car was coming from the opposite direction whose number was MHO2JP1276 and Samit Vijay was sitting with his family. They stopped him at gun point, takes away the car from him but the good point was that in hurry they forget to fire them on this family. And when they change the car, Arun Jadhav calls and informs police control room that two terrorists have just left this road and Police barricades this road strongly from all sides.

As soon as Ismail and Kasab, reaches this barricade they understand that they can't cross it with car their car would be stuck. But there was a divider in the side, which was short in length, so Ismail thinks to escape from the divider but he fails and the car gets stuck there & as it slowly gets stuck in the divider police slowly moves forward. Kasab tries to pick up the gun but at the same time Tukaram Omble - who was retired from ARMY & was ASI in Mumbai Police he caught him but Kasab shot at that time & he is martyred.

From here, Police arrests Kasab and Ismail takes Hospital. Ismail dies while reaching hospital but Kasab was caught alive. Now, the 1st pair Ismail and Kasab is caught, on the other hand the rest groups were executing their plan at the same time, like Shoaib and Nazir they took taxi at the same time and left for the target - their target was Leopold Cafe and after attacking there.

They had to go to Taj Hotel. Leopold Cafe had many American visitors - its a very famous cafe so, that's why they targeted it. Shoaib and Nazir, the 2nd pair - when they take the taxi then similarly, like Ismail and Kasab fits the bomb in taxi.

And then some time later, they reach Leopold cafe where they get down & the taxi they took around 10:30, it was Mazgaon area there it gets blast. And the driver of the taxi - Fhulchand along with 2 passengers Zarina & Reema Mohammad - they lose their lives as well & 19 people on road get injured as well when blast happens. And on this side, they enter Leopold cafe and fire blindly, throw hand grenade and 11 people die in Leopold cafe and 28 peple get injured.

Just after that, they leave for Taj Hotel as per the plan and when they were leaving for Taj hotel so, there was Gokul Wine shop lane where they fit another bomb but someone sees it and informs Mumbai Police. Mumbai Police arrive at the right time & diffuse it. Now, after that their 3rd pair, hafiz hayazi and Javed take taxi to the Taj hotel and after reaching there, they enter through main gate and as soon as they enter the lobby and enter, they fire blindly and at the same time Gautam Adani, CEO of Dubai Port was having dinner with Mohammed Sharaf in Taj Hotel and he was going to the lobby after paying bills exactly at that time luckily Gautam Adani was informed by his associate that they want to do 2nd round of meeting so, Gautam Adani who was moving to the lobby exactly at that time, he stops and leave for coffee and the 2nd round of meeting and when both the terrorists move towards the lobby while firing then the entire Taj Hotel is informed and Gautam Adani leaves the coffee and his team escorts him to the hotel Kitchen, then to the basement and he is rescued.

From this side Hafiz and Javed, while firing from lobby reach at the 5th floor via stairs where they knew that - it was a business center so their motive was to kidnap a big personality and negotiate with the Indian government, now they don't get much on this floor so, they go one floor upwards on the 6th floor and it was around 11:30 at night as soon as they reach the 6th floor, they needed a room because they had to talk on the phone so they try to open room number 520 but since the entire hotel was made known. In that particular room, Corporate bank's chairman - KR Ramamoorthy was there. He knew that the attack is going on, so he didn't open the door.

But the terrorists open it with weapon and enter. Ramamoorthy hides in the washroom - but the terrorists enter there was well they tie him with his own clothes in the washroom and after tieing up, they go to the room and talk with someone in Pakistan for 30 minutes whom they refer has Chacha after that - Shoaib and Nazir reach Taj Hotel as well and while entering they reach at the swimming pool area and fire blindly, and while firing they catch 4 people. And makes them hostage in the same room where their mates were residing - room number 520 all 4 of them meet there.

And when they reach the floor - it was around 2:30 at night they start lighting fire on this 6th floor. The room number 520 was their control room in a way they were talking in Pakistan back to back in phone, all the people that were hostages they were searching their ID on Google that if they're any big personality. If yes, then it'll b easy to negotiate with the Indian Government.

So, rather than killing, their main focus to kidnap any big personality, making hostage negotiating with Indian government - all these 4 weren't scared - they were totally relaxed. They were easily going here and there. If they got anything, they would it eat.

They didn't have any fear on their face these 3 phone umbers were used by the terrorists on which they were instructed to put fire on bedsheet & the man in Pakistan was calling from this phone number this was a landline number. These IP addresses were traced whose location was found to be of Pakistan. And these were 3 satellite phones - whose details are given.

By using these gadgets they were continuously talking in Pakistan. So, after that room number 520 that they were using as a control room they try to put fire to it and the entire room gets covered by smoke. And after that, all the 4 terrorists close the room and leave the hostages there and get out.

And on the other hand, the hostages use bedsheet and climb down the room's window on the other hand these 4 terrorists were firing blindly at the Taj lobby taking positions and by doing this, they took lives of more than 30 people in the Taj hotel. Now, their 4th team which had Imran babar and nasir - walk at that particular time reached Nariman house. And while going there, it was SBS road where Xpress petrol pump was located there they fitted a bomb and the other bomb that they had as soon as they enter Nariman house, they had fit it in the Parking area.

Now, Nariman House is a 5 storeyd building was bought 2 years ago by Chabad of Indian trust - which is a Jews organization Jews stay here, pray together but Israel's priest - Gavriel and his wife Rivka used to live here permanently with their 2 year old son, Moshe their helper wasn't there in this building that day, he had went out & some guests had arrived. When both the terrorists enter, they don't kill anyone - they make everyone hostage to try negotiating with Indian Government & in the amidst, they received back to back phone from Pakistan the man calling from Pakistan instructed them to let a woman named Norma, a Mexican citizen talk with the media, but carefully so that she doesn't give any more details. ''If this Mexican women talks with the media she'll tell the media that this is happening with me, she wants to be saved, to save her.

But you've to keep in mind she doesn't tell how many people are there. . .

. . '' All the people who were talking to the from Pakistan at different points be it, Taj Hotel, Nariman House - rest of the places where they talked on Phone word by word I've given the link in description - if you want, you can read there as well.

These terrorists had hostages in Nariman house but but they were firing on the buildings around them throwing hand grenade. Many people died there as well, they try after for a long time to talk with the Indian Government In fact, they even call Israel's embassy but when the matter doesn't persist, they get frustrated in the Nariman house, they k*ll 9 people. Now, their last and 5th pair - Abdul rehman who is also called - Chota - and Fahad ullah, who took the boat to Oberoi hotel.

They also reached around that time they put the boat on the side & enter the lobby of Oberoi hotel. they fire very aggressively, after that there was hotel's restaurant beside the lobby they move there, around 50-60 people were having dinner but as soon as they hear firing they close the main gate, entrance of the restaurant. but the terrorists fire and break it, but the good thing was until then these 50-60 people had already ran from there, but even after that - 2 hotel staffs Jordan and Pradeep are caught, they are threatened that if you run away, then they will be shot.

After that, asks Jordan to pick all the alcohol and put fire on furniture and windowsill. Jordan does the same as said. But while putting fire to it, he was so scared that - his hands were trembling so much that he couldn't light the lighter and the terrorist Fahadullah, was so angry that he shoots him.

After that they tell Pradeep to do the same thing, to put furniture and windowsill on fire by pouring alcohol - Pradeep does the same. He lights fire After that, they asks Pradeep where the floor of VIP guests are but Pradeep shows a little bit of cleverness and say that - VIP guest on the above floor, you need to take lift Pradeep enters the lift and closes the button lift closes and they both stay out of the lift. And once the door of the lift closes, they fire very much but Pradeep escapes then they throw hand grenade in the entire hotel, fire guns and take lives of 35 people in Oberoi hotel, so one of their group was - Ismail and Ajmal who went CST - among them police had k*lled Ismail and Ajmal was arrested.

2nd group was of Imran Babar & Nasir were in Nariman House & 3rd and 4th group, total 4 people - were in Taj Hotel and the 5th group - was in Oberoi hotel. Now, from here the firing on roads had stopped & police had their entire focus at Taj Hotel, Nariman House & Oberoi Hotel and from here it was clear that - its not a Gang war but a terrorist attack and not a small one but it was so systematic that only 10 people controlled the entire Mumbai at one particular time. They had done one more thing in it - all the terrorists had sent email to all the media houses of India to mislead so that, it seems like - its an Indian group who is attacking for Kashmir this was the particular email that they sent to the media house.

They pretended that its an Indian group, whose name is Muzahiddin Hyderabad Deccan so after this, at night the Maharashtra Government comes into action & asks help from Central govt. to send NSG Commando. Since the attack started - 3 hours later, Maharashtra govt.

called Delhi and asked help for NSG commando, secondly the marine commandos of Maharashtra who had another base in Mumbai were also informed. Even here, things don't escalate as soon as they're informed NSG commandos were ready - 360 NSG commandos were ready to go but they get to know that the aircraft that they had to go in is in Chandigarh, it isn't available. Now, it takes another hour to think & its decided that there's an Aircraft ready at Palam airport.

It should be called and NSG should be sent in it. But there was problem here as well, this aircraft was very small - only 120 NSG commandos could fit in it but after a long decision its decided that only 120 NSG commandos should sent in it, now to decide whether to go with this aircraft or not, to make crew ready along with fuel it took another 1. 5 hours.

Now, after this in this aircraft - 120 NSG commandos leave - normally this route takes 2-2. 5 hours maximum but what happens that it takes 3 hours to reach. And they didn't reach directly at target - they only reached at Mumbai airport.

More time was required to reach the target. So, all the issues I told were the reason, it takes more than 6-7 hours for NSG commandos to reach Mumbai airport some time later, they divide in 3 groups and reach in 3 targets and marine commandos whose base was already in Mumbai, also took 3 hours to reach and all these details were live telecasted by media and if you listen to these terrorists conversation with Pakistan then you'll know that it helped a lot. Every detail was sent, commandos were late helicopter is landing here, commandos didn't reach yet, marine soldiers are here so, they knew lot of detail from here.

Now, after this the map of these 3 locations should ready when people were arriving at this location but that wasn't done as well. So, when NSG commandos reached Hotel Oberoi and Taj hotel, then the map of entry exit, CCTV rooms - they didn't have nay layout ready, now according to the plan, when they were travelling in flight, only then everything should be ready but nothing was ready, when they reach after that these things are being ready. In a way, these terrorists had more details than them but even after being delayed these NSG commandos start the operation.

These terrorists had attacked on 26th november, 2008 on 28th November, 2008 in the morning at 7 o' clock the Oberoi hotel, the security forces firstly encounters these two terrorists. After this, on 28th November, 2008 at night at 8:30 pm , security forces encounters terrorists at Nariman House and after that at last, on 29th November, 2008 - it took around 60 hours in this entire process around 9 o' clock in the morning - the 4 terrorists at Taj hotel were encountered by security forces from our side, Sandeep Unnikrishnan and reserve Police force officer Rahul Shinde get martyred while fighting and this entire Mumbai attack claimed lives of 176 people and more than 300 people were injured. At last, let me tell you again that Kuku FM's audiobook - Forty six India rescue operation against ISIS do listen to it.
