Train bombers ‘funded by British businessmen’
SOME of the main fundraisers for the terror group suspected of masterminding the Bombay train bombings are operating from Britain, according to Indian intelligence officials.
The officials accuse Britain of failing to act against a number of wealthy businessmen, who they claim are using bogus charities to funnel up to £8 million a year to Kashmiri militants groups, such as Lashkar-e-Taiba, which remains the main suspect for orchestrating the synchronised bombings that killed 182 people.

Powerful military explosive used in India
BOMBAY, India – Investigators said Monday that RDX ‹ a military explosive favored by Islamic militants in India’s part of Kashmir ‹ was used in the deadly attack on Bombay’s rail system.
The announcement by a leading investigator was seen as further evidence of a link between Pakistan-based militants and the July 11 attack that killed 182 people and wounded more than 800.
“The explosive used was a mixture of ammonium nitrate, RDX and fuel oil,” said K.P. Raghuvanshi, leader of the anti-terrorist squad investigating the bombings.
