Nariman House: Were there more terrorists?

Many mysteries are emerging from behind the shattered windows of Nariman House.
Six Isrealis, who were held captive during the terror strike, were killed in this building.
Finally, two terrorists were killed by commandos. But eyewitnesses say the numbers do not add up.
Haridas Gaikwad, who runs a TV repair shop opposite Nariman House, says he saw four Indian looking men enter the building just before the firing started.
"I saw six people. Two looked Israeli and four looked Indian. They reached the lift. Two more Indian-looking men went in. They gave them more bags and left. The six went up at 9.30 pm. And at 9.45 the firing started. When the commandos claimed two (terrorists) were killed, I was surprised. Where did the other two go?" says Haridas.
Others who live nearby say that Indians usually do not enter this building. Entrance is restricted only to Israelis. This is why they distinctly remember the four Indians on the night of November 26.
"No Indians were ever seen entering the building," said Puran Doshi, former Corporator.
Haridas also claims that he had seen one of the men there just two days before the attack.
Many questions about the Nariman House encounter remain unanswered -- why were these eyewitnesses not questioned by the police? Could the CCTV camera overlooking the gate corroborate these accounts? And most importantly, are there more terrorists on the loose?
The police may maintain that only ten terrorists had entered Mumbai. But eyewitness statements raise crucial questions -- were there more terrorists who escaped or were they local supporters?
