520 _aThe 26/11 attacks broke the ‘undying spirit’ of Mumbai. For the first time this city engaged in a 60-hour long battle with the terrorists who dared to bring it to its knees. The audacious attacks carried out by ten heavily armed youngsters dented Mumbai’s joie de vivre forever. The terror unleashed by the fidayeens, was something no Mumbaikar was prepared for. More than 170 innocent people lost their lives in this attack. This book follows the trail of terror from Pakistan to the city’s financial capital. Mumbai Under Siege offers an analysis of the intelligence inputs that security agencies received over two years, compelling evidence from the sites of the terror attacks, the lone captured terrorist’s confession, and a frightening answer to the question on everyone’s mind —will it happen again?
