Court convicts Muslim pair in Mumbai blasts
2006-09-19
MUMBAI: A court convicted two Muslim men on Monday for murdering 10 people in a bombing outside a Mumbai cinema during 'Black Friday' 13 years ago when 257 were killed in India's worst terrorist attack. Asgar Yusuf Mukadam and Shahnawaz Qureshi parked a van packed with explosives set to go off outside the cinema during a two-hour citywide blitz in the capital city in 1993. Seven people have now been convicted over the attacks, including three alleged bombers, with verdicts for the rest of the 123 defendants expected in the coming weeks. Three people have been acquitted. Prosecutors said Monday's verdicts proved for the first time that a bomber had received training at a camp in Pakistan, where Qureshi had been sent by the alleged plot leaders.
