New Delhi: The Indian Supreme Court on Monday stayed the execution of Ajmal Kasab, who was convicted for the 26/11 Mumbai terror blasts.
The apex court issued a notice to Maharashtra government on Kasab’s plea.
On November 26, 2008, Kasab and his nine other accomplices allegedly belonging from Pakistan had carried out attacks in Mumbai, killing 166 people.
Kasab, the sole convict in the case, has filed the petition through jail authorities in the apex court which has appointed senior advocate Raju Ramachandaran as amicus curie to assist it in deciding the appeal.
On September 2, the apex court had agreed to hear the plea of Maharashtra government against the acquittal of two accused Faheem Ansari and the other.
