INDIA-TERROR-ATTACKS

Indian newspapers have slammed the government and intelligence agencies for failing to prevent the Mumbai attacks, saying the country’s anti-terrorism forces were ill-prepared for the militants. Up to 130 people were killed and around 300 more wounded in coordinated attacks by gunmen in India’s commercial capital Mumbai. AFP PHOTO/Indranil MUKHERJEE
