A FRENZIED lynch mob tried to kill sole surviving Mumbai terrorist Ajmal Kasab (Muhammad Ajmal Amir Kasab), dramatic new video footage revealed yesterday.

Baby-faced Kasab, 21, was caught with another gunman after a Skoda they had hijacked was halted at a road block. Armed cops opened up on the car, killing Kasab’s comrade instantly. A passer-by captured the unfolding scene on video using his mobile.

It shows cops suddenly realising blood-spattered Kasab – with a bullet-wound to his hand – had been playing dead.

He is seen crouching in a ball on the ground as two vengeful policemen lay into him, smashing wooden staves on his back. Passers-by then join in the beating, raining punches and kicks on the killer. The attack is so ferocious it appears Kasab will die. But senior cops finally step in to save him – the only survivor of the ten-strong terror gang which left at least 174 dead and 330 wounded.

The maniac had killed dozens of innocents himself when he sprayed bullets with a sub-machine gun around Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji rail terminus. He and his accomplice were intercepted by a police 4×4 as they fled the scene. But they opened up on the vehicle, killing Mumbai’s anti-terror squad chief Hemant Karkare and two colleagues. The pair then snatched Karkare’s vehicle before switching to the Skoda when the police car’s tyres were shot out by cops in pursuit.

The said-to-be Pakistani militant – who faces the death penalty – was being interrogated by Indian police and intelligence officers last night.

He has told them he is proud of his part in
