Important poInts to remember about Kasab’s ExEcution

(This event is important for us because this is the most discussed topic now a days)

The villian of the Mumbai terror attack of November 26, 2008 Mohammad Ajmal Amir Kasab was on 21st November 2012 (Wednesday ) morning executed in a top-secret manner, leaving not just Indians but the entire world surprised.

The Pakistan national gunman was hanged in the high-security Yerwada Jail in Pune early on Wednesday after a four-year-long trial. Kasab, who was being kept at the Arthur Road Jail in Mumbai, was moved to the Yerwada jail earlier on Sunday night.

Reportedly codenamed ‘Operation X’ and led by Special IG (law and order) Devan Bharti, the entire process began on November 5 when the President rejected the mercy plea of Kasab and ended this morning with the terrorist’s execution.

In a formal announcement made by Maharashtra home minister early at 8:30 am on Wednesday, RR Patil said, "Kasab's hanging is a tribute to all the 166 people killed as well as those police officer martyred in the attack."

Here is a timeline of important events :

 Nov 26, 2008 : Mumbai Police assistant sub-inspector Tukaram Ombale, lost his life while capturing Kasab alive.  Oct 16, 2012 : Union Home Ministry recommends to President for rejection of Kasab's mercy plea.  Nov 5, 2012 : President rejects Kasab's mercy petition. www.Gr8AmbitionZ.comLike our Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/Gr8AmbitionZ for daily updates
