Adult trial for alleged terrorist

THE only surviving suspected gunman in last year's terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India, will be tried as an adult, which means he could face the death penalty, the presiding judge said.

The defense lawyer representing Mohammed Ajmal Kasab said his client was 17 at the time of the November attacks last year and should be tried by a juvenile court. But Indian medical experts declared that Kasab is at least 20 after examining his teeth and X-rays of his bones.
