Mumbai attacks: 300 feared dead as full horror of the terrorist attacks emerges
The death toll in the Mumbai terror attack is expected to soar to nearly 300, Indian officials said, as details emerged of the highly-organised terror plot.

Piles of bodies were found yesterday after commandos stormed the Taj Mahal Palace hotel, the last of three buildings that terrorists had occupied in the city. Three terrorists were killed in the battle.

The end to four days of carnage came as tensions grew between India and Pakistan over the atrocity.

It is believed that just 10 highly-trained terrorists took part in the attack. Nine were killed and one suspect is under arrest.

British and Indian authorities were yesterday playing down reports that some of the attackers were British, although this had not been comprehensively ruled out.

THe Indian authorities claim he said he is from LeT.

What I find strange is that earlier, they said they had captured 6 attackers alive, but now it is just one. What happened to the other 5?

2. So, they've back pedalled to "rumors" now?

Yesterday it was reported that two were British nationals and that Scotland Yard was on the scene. Hmmm.
