Special court likely to fix date for argument in 26/11 case

Special Court Judge M L Tahaliyani is likely to fix the date tomorrow for argument on the evidence recorded during the trial against lone Pakistani terrorist Ajmal Amir Kasab and two other co-accused in 26/11 Mumbai terror attack.

The court would resume tomorrow, nearly a month after it concluded recording of evidence.

Special public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam and Kasab's lawyer K P Pawar have stated that they were ready to put forth their arguments.

However, co-accused Faheem Ansari is likely to seek time to engage another lawyer following the gunning down of his counsel Shahid Azmi recently.

During the trial proceeding 610 witnesses deposed before the court and at least 40 eyewitnesses, including the injured, had identified Kasab in the court.

In the blast, more than 160 people were killed and over 250 injured on November 26, 2008 by 10 terrorists.
