Mumbai drama, hotel guests testify to What actually happened

Hotel guest tell us the true story as to what happened when they were kept as hostages. The stories craft by the Indian electronic and print media were absolutely absurd from the very beginning. Now we have it that the guests who had trapped themselves inside hotel rooms for safety were actually instructed by policemen to leave the building while the fighting raged on.

Several other things have been left unanswered, including the gross failure of Indian security and intelligence agencies that such a big terrorist attack happened right under their nose, in a country aspiring to become a regional superpower. All these questions that raise in one’s mind have been discussed before here and at several other forums.

So much so that the Indian minister for minorities had to resign for raising the issue of Mr. Karkare’s suspicious killing at an unknown location on the same day - the senior Indian policeman who had exposed the masterminds of the Samjhota express bombings and held a Hindu serving Indian army Colonel for the same.


Yet India is still pushing forward with its absurd, concocted story of the deadly Mumbai terror attacks holding Pakistan responsible, while all evidence points towards it as being a staged drama by Indian Hindu extremists who have penetrated Indian state machinery in large numbers.

Following is the BBC news report, in which guests at the Taj hotel have testified against the Indian police..

By Adam Mynott
BBC News, Mumbai
Guests trapped in a Mumbai hotel seized by gunmen last month have told the BBC they were given instructions by police that may have led to more people dying.

Police told a group hiding in the Taj Mahal Palace hotel that it was safe to leave the building, a survivor said.

But members of the group were shot and killed by militant gunmen as they were making their way out.

The senior policeman in charge of the operation in the hotel has denied the allegations against his officers.

‘Suspicious’

A prominent Mumbai gynaecologist, Dr Prashant Mangeshikar, was trapped in the Taj Mahal hotel along with hundreds of other guests as gunmen stormed into the building, firing indiscriminately.

Terrified, he and others barricaded themselves into a room and waited.

Eventually, in the early hours of the morning, police officers made it through to where they were hiding and told people it was safe to leave the hotel because the gunmen were cornered on another floor.

Some went ahead but Dr Mangeshikar held back.

“I was a little suspicious that the police were actually sending these guys down a different route where the terrorists were supposed to be,” he said.

“I refused to move away and the people who ran ahead of me, about 20 or 30 of them, all of them died.”

A dress designer from the city says her aunt was shot dead and her cousin seriously wounded because they followed police instructions to try to leave.

The designer, Shilpa, described the police conduct as disgraceful.

They had no right, she said, to risk people’s lives.

The senior policeman in charge of the operation in the hotel has denied these allegations against his officers.

But they add to growing criticism of the police and how they responded to the attack in which more than 170 people were killed.

The move seems to be one to fuel more hatred against Pakistan by increasing the number of deaths as a result of this barbaric act.

  3. This is not the first time that Indians are playing this sort of drama. In fact they have been doing it in the past as well whether its plane hijacking case or fake attack on their Parliament in Delhi or Samjhota Express or Gujraat Killings. They do every thing themselves and put the blame on other countries and agencies. The astonishing thing is that they have not been able to learn in 60 years to plan such a damn thing in a fool proof manner. They do it, and within a month or two every true aspect is revealed out.

  5. This news report by By Adam Mynott, BBC News,is laughable. More so are the rabid comments posted above. One of these is from one Nadeem, probably from Pakistan. The other three are anonymous, which is typical of cowards.

    When crises happen suddenly, police in any country has to to act fast, at the spur of the moment, without the obvious benefit of hindsight. Everything done in such a situation cannot be 100% perfect.

    What surprises me is the BBC News comment, which is expected to be more sensible. Since the BBC memory seems to be tenuous, here is a refresher from Wikipedia--

    Jean Charles de Menezes (7 January 1978 – 22 July 2005) was a Brazilian national shot dead by police at Stockwell tube station in London, England. He was shot in the head at close range by Metropolitan Police who misidentified him as a suicide bomber about to explode a device on the London Underground. Within hours police discovered that he was not involved in any terrorist act, but was actually an innocent victim.
