Mumbai: The family of slain assistant police sub-inspector Tukaram Ombale, who caught Pakistani terrorist Mohammed Ajmal Amir Kasab alive during the 26/11 terror attacks, expressed satisfaction with the gunman's conviction, but demanded that he should be given death penalty.
"It is good to hear that Kasab was found guilty. We were eagerly awaiting this since morning. He should be given death penalty then only, I think, my father's sacrifice will have actual value," an emotional Vaishali Ombale, 23-year-old daughter of the policeman said.
Tukaram's cousin brother Namdeo Ombale said, "I knew that Kasab would be convicted as he was clearly seen killing people on the night of terror attacks. Tomorrow's day would be very crucial for us as the quantum of punishment in the case against Kasab would be decided and we want the court to give him death penalty."
Unarmed Ombale was shot dead by an AK-47-wielding Kasab at Girgaum Chowpatty in south Mumbai, but not before he ensured that the terrorist was caught alive.
