India: Terror attack kills 17, wounds 81 in Mumbai

MUMBAI, India (AP) — Near-simultaneous bomb blasts rocked three busy neighborhoods during evening rush hour in India's busy financial capital Wednesday, killing 17 people in what the government called an apparent terrorist attack on the city besieged by militants nearly three years ago.

Blood-covered bodies lay on the streets and people hugged and wept. Others carried the wounded to taxis. Crowds gathered in the blast areas as police questioned witnesses, and bomb squads inspected the undercarriages of vehicles searching for clues and other explosives.

Motorcycles were charred, shopfronts shattered and a bus stop ripped apart. A photograph showed victims crowding into the back of a cargo truck to be taken to a hospital.

The first blast struck the Jhaveri Bazaar at 6.54 p.m., tearing through the famed jewelry market. A minute later, a second blast hit the busy business district of Opera House, several miles (kilometers) away in southern Mumbai. At 7:05 p.m., the third bomb exploded in the crowded neighborhood of Dadar in central Mumbai, according to police.

Because of the close timing of the bomb blasts, "we infer that this was a coordinated attack by terrorists," Home Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram said.

Indian officials refused to speculate on who might be behind the blasts. Past attacks have been blamed on Pakistan-based militants, and Indian officials have accused Pakistan's powerful spy agency of helping coordinate and fund some of those strikes, including the Mumbai siege.

A U.S. official says there are no claims of responsibility, or firm indication of which terrorist group might be behind the attack at this time. The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss matters of intelligence.

"The entire city of Mumbai has been put on high alert," Chidambaram said. "I would appeal to the people of Mumbai and people all over the country to remain calm and to maintain peace."

An eyewitness at Jhaveri Bazaar described two motorcycles exploding in flames and saw at least six bodies.

"People were shouting 'Help me, help me,'" the man told Headlines Today television.

Another witness showed cell phone clips of several bodies sprawled across the street to the NDTV news station.

Prithviraj Chavan, the top official in the state of Maharashtra, where Mumbai was located, said the blasts killed 17 people and wounded 81 others. Chidambaram said the toll was likely to rise.

The blasts marked the first major attack on Mumbai since 10 militants laid siege to India's financial capital for 60 hours in November 2008.

That attack, which targeted two luxury hotels, a Jewish center and a busy train station, killed 166 people and escalated tensions between India and Pakistan. Peace talks were suspended and resumed only recently.

Pakistan's government expressed distress on the loss of lives and injuries soon after Wednesday's blasts were reported.

Some media incorrectly reported the blasts happened on the birthday of Ajmal Kasab, the only surviving gunmen from the 2008 Mumbai attacks. Kasab, who was sentenced to death in Mumbai, was born on Sept. 13.

Mumbai has been on edge since the 2008 attack. In December, authorities deployed extra police on city streets after receiving intelligence that a Pakistan-based militant group was planning an attack over New Year's weekend. Police conducted house-to-house searches in some neighborhoods for four men who authorities believe entered the city to carry out a terrorist attack, and computer-aided photographs of the four suspects were released.

In March 2010, Mumbai police said they prevented a major terrorist strike after they arrested two Indian men, who, police said, were preparing to hit several targets in the city. In September, police issued a terror alert for the city during a popular Hindu festival.

 I won't even lie that I don't feel sorry for these dirty mother[Disallowed String for - banned word]ers. They are the worst neighbors that their neighbors can have. With more people in poverty than sub-Sahara, these cocksu*kers, and even the highly 'educated' ones in the US,  manage to look down upon Nepali and other South Asian citizens. The negative attitude is on full display as soon as you pull out Nepali passport during your Delhi transit. Hope to see more in the future, especially when our 'leaders' are visiting Delhi and barking at their overlords in Hindi. With a billion and a half cockroaches, India is only a drag on world's resources. Hope to see more catastrophe their way.

 So I should post my rant when nothing is happening in India? Get back to your usual gas-station duties now you stupid c*nt, or enjoy watching a shirtless Khan dancing to some stupid shit. It's cultural slaves of India like you who have ruined Nepal.

I am more concerned about growing Muslim population in India. It is predicted that by sometime around 2030 muslim will be almost 40 % in India. Which means more terror and internal friction within the country.
Nepal will probably have to counter Islamisation pretty soon. I can not imagaine muslim dominating hindus in Nepal.

India should stop enroaching Nepal's border and start increasing security in their country. They should learn that messing with neigbour and trying to interfere in neighbor's mattters can bring bad consequence in their country.They themselves are too big why they have to interfere little bit land of Nepal . Consequence: Anti-indian feelings will increases and it will be big threat for their country. India hs become big headache for Nepal, Pakistan, China, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka etc.
Hope, from this attack they will learn some lesson.

The best way out for India I guess is to dismantle the Indian union ,  these things are bound to happen when you try to stick people with you against their will, when people in Kashmir don’t want to be ruled by a bunch of Biharis and UP wala bhaiyas why are they forced to do so, and the irony is the world actually believes India is the largest democracy, well it certainly is one of the largest market to sell your shit.  Not only Kasmiris I feel very bad for people from Himanchal Pradesh, Nagaland, Mizoram and other north eastern states whose identity is lost, they are not even called Indians in India but are generalized as Nepali.

Zombie: Sorry about my assumption that you were a human, who would naturally feel sad when the humanity is attacked and innocent people are murdured, regardless of national origin. With your horrendous comments, it is really difficult to see any difference between yourself and those who executed this attack on innocent civillians... I am ashamed to share this forum with someone like you who has nothing but the hate to offer...

No matter what your stand is against India and/or Indians, to revel in this tragedy and actually wish for more, in my humble opinion, is rather inhuman.  Don't you agree?

 Why don't you two go on a Kiss-an-Indian spree or, even better, get a room together to spread the love? I for one continue to wish destruction of India and Indians, although a much bigger natural disaster is better than seeing these types of highly inefficient plots.

Zombie: You are truly a disgrace. I am not a fan of Indian foreign policy but how can you support killing of innocent civillians? Ever considered joing Taliban or LeT? You would be a perfect fit.

Just because you like hairy ass, why the f**k do I have to be sympathetic to some dead slumf**ks with no hope or future? As for Taliban and s**t, the Islamist savages can go to hell and find their 72 virgins from Blue Diamond Society. I'm an equal opportunity hater who hates rag-heads of all kinds. The planet has way too many cockroaches crawling all over it. To quote Tool:

"I wanna see the ground give way, I wanna watch it all go down"
