The investigation department of the investigative committee at the Moscow prosecutor's office has launched an inquiry into looting that occurred during the rescue of hostages at Dubrovka. The hostages had been captured while viewing the musical 'Nord-Ost' in October of 2002. Igor Trunov, the lawyer representing the interests of the victims, told 'Gazeta' that on November 20th a criminal case was opened in accordance with Article 158 of the Criminal Code (Theft).
Relatives of the victims, and survivors, began pursuit of criminal charges six years ago. The main suspect was FSB investigator Lilyukhin, but no charges were brought against him as he had died in a car accident in March of 2005. Relatives of the victims asked for the return of personal belongings and money, but investigators ignored the appeals.

 In Mumbai there was a series of terrorist attacks, unprecedented in scale and number
The financial capital and largest city of India, Mumbai (formerly Bombay) became the target of unprecedented terrorist attacks. As a result of a series of bombings and shootings, more than a hundred were killed, and the number of victims is likely to be much higher. The Indian media has dubbed the event «India's September 11th,» and this is obviously not without justification: the attack on November 26th was the largest of 2008.
Most of the attacks were carried out in the south of Mumbai. Terrorists attacked hotels and cafes, as well as a police headquarters and a hospital.
