A senior commander of Pakistani terrorist outfit Lashkar-e-Tayiba has said that Ajmal Kasab, who was executed on Wednesday for his role in the 2008 Mumbai attacks, was a 'hero' who will inspire more attacks.
"He was a hero and will inspire other fighters to follow his path," Reuters quoted a commander of the LeT, which is accused of masterminding the attack, as saying.
Kasab, the lone surviving attacker behind the attacks, was hanged in Pune's Yerwada prison at 7:30 am on Wednesday after President Pranab Mukherjee rejected his appeal for mercy.
