A Pakistani man convicted over the 2008 attacks in Mumbai (Bombay) has been sentenced to death by a court in India.
Mohammed Ajmal Amir Qasab – the only gunman who survived the attacks – was found guilty on Monday.
He was convicted on charges including murder, waging war on India and possessing explosives.
The attacks left 174 people dead, nine of them gunmen, and soured India’s ties with Pakistan. India blamed Pakistan-based militants for the attack.
Judge ML Tahaliyani said he had awarded the death penalty because there was no chance Qasab could be rehabilitated.
"He should be hanged by the neck until he is dead," he said.
The BBC’s Prachi Pinglay in the courtroom in Mumbai says that Qasab shook his head when he was asked if he wanted to make a statement. He was later seen wiping his face and talking to a policeman.
