Security forces killed nine of them and captured one after three days of operations in multiple places in the metropolis.

"Heartfelt tributes to those who lost their lives in the Mumbai 26/11 terror attacks and salute the courage of all the security personnel who bravely faced the terrorists in the cowardly attacks. The whole nation will remain proud of your bravery. A grateful nation will always be indebted to your sacrifice," Shah tweeted in Hindi.
