Kasab unwell, seeks court's permission to return to his cell

Lone surviving Pakistani gunman of 26/11 Mumbai terror attack Ajmal Kasab today sought permission of the trial court to return to his cell due to indisposition.

Judge ML Tahiliyani allowed Kasab a 30-minute break and permitted him to go back to his cell after he complained of giddiness and nausea.

After lunch recess, when Kasab was brought to the court, he asked for water. Kasab, attired in kurta-pyjama, then sought permission to leave, saying he felt like vomiting. Immediately, he was escorted by the security guards to the washroom. When Kasab returned, he sat in the dock covering his face with hands.

Earlier also he had complained about stomach disorders and had been examined by the jail doctor, who prescribed some treatment.
