Take care Mumbai bhpians, be safe.

Who do we have that they are looking for?

Doesn't look like the situation will diffuse too soon, could well stretch into the next day or two.
This is the sort of stuff J&K sees almost every week. The government never woke up there, I don't see them waking up here too.

All remain indoors on Thursday till things stabilise.

TV report suggest that terrorists exploded bomb, waited for public to come out to see what happened, then they started firing indiscriminately in Girgaum, many got killed by random bullets inside their houses, maybe at their windows.

Boat with explosives found at gateway : CNN IBN

EDIT : News flashing attacks happened at or near Ramad Hotel which is quite close to Mariott in Juhu .

Time to impose curfew in Bombay and clamp down on all movement till situation eases up, and the hostage drama can be defused at the Taj and Oberoi

correction in report - attack in Ramada Hotel, Juhu, not JW Marriott

mohit · 27th November 2008, 01:22

I think once the army comes in.. curfew is imminent. Now the Ramada instead of the Marriot....... man this is insane.

Be safe guys. Please stay indoors.

hvkumar · 27th November 2008, 01:27

report is, explosives came by boat to gateway

NetfreakBombay · 27th November 2008, 01:28

Ramada is 2 buildings away. But didnt sound like it came from there. Sounded like it came near marriott.

What a pathetic statement by the Defence minister - Shivraj Patil.

he still wants to confirm whether the 2 people caught by cops are terrorists or not !!

Shame !!

So much security, so much of checking everywhere and they still get away with it. Looks like there is nothing to stop them. There is no hope for this place. Shame !!
