Mumbai twin blasts: Three sentenced to death - News In Pictures

Two of the convicted bombers of the 2003 twin blast at the Gateway of India and Zaveri Bazaar areas that claimed over 50 lives, Ashrat Ansari and Haneef Sayed, stand inside a prison van on way to the special court for their sentencing in Mumbai on August 6, 2009. A special POTA court on Thursday sentenced to death three people, including a married couple, for planting bombs that killed 52 victims in the city of Mumbai in 2003. Judge M.R. Puranik, sitting at a special anti-terror court, ordered that Haneef Sayed, his wife Fahmeeda Sayed, and Ashrat Ansari "should be hanged by the neck until dead" for murder, criminal conspiracy and terrorism.
