Kasab not interested in case,lost in his own world,says lawyer

Kasab does not have any interest in the hearing of his appeal in the Bombay High Court and seems to be lost in his own world,his lawyer Amin Solkar said.

Pakistani terrorist Ajmal Kasab,sentenced to death for his role in 26/11 terror attacks,does not have any interest in the hearing of his appeal in the Bombay High Court and seems to be lost in his own world,his lawyer Amin Solkar said today.

Solkar,who met Kasab in his heavily guarded bullet and bomb-proof cell at Arthur Road Central Prison on Saturday,said,“He does not evince interest in the case. We talked about religion and things in general but often he went off at the tangent and diverted from the topic… I think he is lost in his own world.”

“Kasab seems to be medically fit and showed interest in reading books. I have promised to give him some story books in Urdu as he is proficient in that language,” Solkar said. The jail authorities have provided him with the holy Quran and Kasab recites the verses regularly.

“All I can understand from meeting him is that he is unpredictable. He says one thing at a moment and suddenly switches to another topic.”
