Terror is no stranger to India, or the city of Mumbai for that matter. But the style, scale and shock of the assault on the country's financial capital on 26 November 2008, was horrifyingly unprecedented. People returning home from work, or enjoying a mid-week beer, having dinner at a restaurant, or just staying at home and entertaining guests, were brutally targeted and killed by ten terrorists who came by boat from Pakistan. It was sixty hours of mayhem the likes of which the world had rarely seen.
