Yakub Memon accused of Mumbai bomb blasts in 1993 was hanged
till death on Thursday morning 6.30
am at Nagpur Central Jail and buried in
Bada Kabristan(big cemetery). Yakub was buried in his father’s grave.
The body of deceased was assigned to his kin, but the
publicly funeral was not allowed. According to the rites the Namaz was prayed
before Yakub’s burial and the spot overcrowding delayed the funeral.
The Mumbai police had forbidden to the photo or the
videography of Yakub’s body. There were deployed about 35 thousand police
personnel outside Yakub’s home. The body was taken to Mahim Yakub’s home away
from Mumbai airport for a short time, so that the women of home can see
traditionally the body.
The body after that was buried in Bada Kabristan at marine

home. There were strong safeties near Yakub’s home in Mumbai under Mahim area
after the hanging. Two platoons of rapid action force were deployed to control
the situation. The police under patrolling were
deployed every corner of the city later.

heard mid-night the application was moved; but it refused to allow the
application to retreat the hanging for next 14 days.
