Chechen snuffy in Mumbai cancels Metzger visit
Vice Admiral V J Metzger, commander-in-chief of the US Seventh Fleet, has cancelled his visit to Mumbai, following an Intelligence Bureau (IB) report which had said he could be the target of a terrorist attack. Metzer, who was to arrive on a brief visit to the city, was to be targeted by a Chechen terrorist believed to have slipped into the city along with two al Qaeda operatives, according to the IB report. Police have, however, launched a massive manhunt for the terrorist, who has been active in Kashmir for seven years.
