Investigators Say the Drugs Were Used to Enhance the Attackers' Performance
The gunmen that led the three-day assault on Mumbai last week were pumped up with steroids and amphetamines, according to a NYPD investigator who is now on the ground in Mumbai. The substances, found following forensics tests, according to Capt. Brandon del Pozo of the NYPD Intelligence Division, were likely meant to enhance performance. They were not used to create out-of-control terrorists, analysts said.
Nine gunmen were killed in the three day shootout with Indian commandos and one survived. The lone surviving terrorist has told interrogators that as many as 14 other trained terrorists are still at-large in Pakistan.
