Video Allegedly Shows India Terror Arrest
Source: CBS

(CBS/AP) A grainy cell-phone video obtained by CBS News shows the moments before police in Mumbai arrested the only living suspect in the 60-hour terror rampage that began last Wednesday and eventually left at least 170 people dead.

The one-minute, 35-second video opens with images that apparently show bystanders and Indian security forces beating a man on the ground with sticks.

The journalist from whom CBS News obtained the video says the man is Ajmal Qasab, who, according to a senior Indian police officer, confessed to interrogators that he is a member of the Pakistani militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba.

The low-resolution video shows Qasab being beaten by men in white shirts after he allegedly tried to hijack a car. The photographer says he turned to face a group of bystanders and police holding an assault rifle and shot at them, prompting the violent reaction by the group.
