The identity of these terrorists has already been established hence their bodies may be sent to Pakistan, Nikam said.
Hence bodies can be disposed off as they are not required in the trial, Nikam said. This is perhaps for the first time the bodies have been identified by witnesses in test identification parade, Nikam said.
These witnesses had seen the terrorists firing at people at hotel Taj, hotel Oberoi and other places. Secretary of Medical Education Bhushan Gagarani recently opined that the bodies of terrorists may start decomposing because of humidity and said that his department would give report to police suggesting speedy disposal of the bodies.
