Mumbai under terrorist attack again



More than 80 people were killed during terrorist attack in Mumbai setting off coordinated multiple blasts and gunfire in a dozen areas across the metropolis including the crowded CST railway station and two five star hotels Oberoi and Taj.

Mumbai has been hit repeatedly by terror attacks since March 1993, when Muslim underworld figures tied to Pakistani militants allegedly carried out a series of bombings on Mumbai’s stock exchange, trains, hotels and gas stations. Authorities say those attacks, which killed 257 people and wounded more than 1,100, were carried out to avenge the deaths of hundreds of Muslims in religious riots which had swept India. Ten years later, in 2003, 52 people were killed in Mumbai bombings blamed on Muslim militants and in July 2007 a series of seven blasts ripped through railway trains and commuter rail stations. At least 187 died in those attacks.

One Malaysian business man is believed trapped in the bomb attack but the reports clarified the person is missing...Malaysian consul really worrying about the missing citizen.
