Court frees men accused in 2006 train bombings India blamed on Pakistan-based group

MUMBAI: Nearly two decades lost, a family fractured and a city still without closure — the scars of the 2006 Mumbai train bombings remain, even as the men once blamed for the deadly attacks walk free. After 19 years behind bars, Mohammad Sajid Margub Ansari can finally hold his daughter in his arms. Ansari, now 48, was one of 12 men convicted in 2015 for murder, conspiracy and waging war against India over the 2006 train blasts. The evening rush-hour attacks, carried out with pressure-cooker bombs hidden in bags beneath newspapers and umbrellas, killed 187 people and wounded hundreds more.
