Indian Police: Mumbai gunmen came by sea from Pakistan
By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
The gunmen who attacked Mumbai set out by boat from the Pakistani port of Karachi, then later hijacked an Indian fishing trawler that carried them toward this financial capital on their suicide mission, a top police official said.
As evidence of the militants' links to Pakistan mounted, Mumbai police commissioner Hasan Ghafoor said ex-Pakistani army officers trained the group - some for up to 18 months - and denied reports the men had been planning to escape the city.
"It appears that it was a suicide attack," Ghafoor said Tuesday, providing no other details about when the gunmen left Karachi, or when they hijacked the trawler.
