Update!

The Taj Hotel has caught alight! The flames burned, and firefighters bravely risked their lives to save the hostages that were trapped within. A few of the hostages are now safe.

Earlier 38 year old Sajjad Karim gave a live report from inside the building. He gave information, and just before the phone went dead reported: “I managed to turn away and I ran into the hotel kitchen and then we were shunted into a restaurant in the basement. We are now in the dark in this room, and we have barricaded all the doors. It’s really bad.”

Let's all hope that the situation get's better, and for the New York Times full report on the matter go to http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/27/world/asia/27mumbai.html .
