MUMBAI:

Mumbai gunman reveals chilling details of attack (Ramola Talwar Badam, 12/14/08, Scotland on Sunday)

THE gunman captured in last month's Mumbai attacks had originally intended to seize hostages and outline demands in a series of dramatic calls to the media, according to his confession.
Mohammed Ajmal Kasab said he and his partner, who assaulted the city's main train station, had planned a rooftop stand-off, but they couldn't find a suitable building, the statement to police says.

The two killed dozens of people inside the station, but it's unclear if they ever held hostages.

Kasab's seven-page confession, given to police over repeated interrogations, offers chilling new details of the three-day rampage through India's commercial centre that left 164 people plus nine gunmen dead.
