Mumbai: Three journalists of a private news
channel today identified their voices in the conversation
recorded between them and terrorists during the 26/11 terror
attacks.

CDs containing the telephonic talks between the
journalists and two terrorists Shahdulla and Imran Babbar from
Hotel Oberoi and Nariman House respectively, were played
before the special court here.

The terrorists asked the channel to air the conversation
live so that their demands were revealed to everyone.

The terrorists, while in conversation with the anchor
Archana Singh of the news channel, said they wanted all the
`Mujahideens` arrested in India to be released and the
minority community to be treated with respect.

The terrorists, however, claimed that they were from
Deccan Hyderabad in India and were fighting for the cause of
the minority community throughout the nation.

Lone surviving Pakistan gunman Ajmal Kasab and two
Indians, Faheem Ansari and Sabauddin Ahmed, are facing trial
in a special court on the charge of killing 166 persons in the
terror attacks.

Kasab and nine other slain terrorists had come to India
from Pakistan through sea route and attacked Hotels Taj and
Oberoi, Nariman House and Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST)
and planted bombs in two taxis on November 26 last year.
