Bombay HC Confirms Death Penalty Of Three LeT Members In 2003 Blasts

The Bombay High Court today upheld the death sentence awarded to three members of Pakistan-based LeT, including a couple, in the 2003 twin Mumbai blasts that left 52 dead and quashed discharge of two other accused who will now have to stand trial.

A division bench of Justices A M Khanvilkar and P D Kode confirmed the death penalty of Ashrat Ansari (32), Hanif Sayed Anees (46) and his wife Fehmida Sayed (43), two and a half years after they were handed down the punishment by a special POTA court.
