The Bombay High Court today posted for hearing on December 7 a petition filed by Maharashtra government asking for certified copies of certain documents to be sent to Pakistan regarding evidence against terrorist Ajmal Kasab in the 26/11 terror attack case. Justice Ranjana Desai and Justice R V More decided to hear the matter on December 7 and asked Advocate General Ravi Kadam and Additional Solicitor General Darius Khambatta to make submissions along with Government Counsel Ujjwal Nikam. The petition contended that documents were required by Pakistan for the 26/11 terror attack trial in that country where seven accused, including Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, alleged mastermind and LeT's chief of anti-India operations, are facing charges of masterminding the strikes in Mumbai. The documents sought by Pakistan include autopsy reports of 166 persons who were killed in terror strikes and crucial evidence of witnesses adduced against Pakistani terrorist Ajmal Kasab in a sessions court in Mumbai.
