THE terror group that ruthlessly struck at Mumbai's heart has demanded an end to persecution of Muslims and the release of militants from prison.
The previously unknown group that claimed responsibility for the attacks across Mumbai has added to the growing belief that India is confronting a home-grown Islamic militancy.
Attacks over the last year have been claimed by groups with names stressing their local origins.
Deccan Mujahedeen, which said it was responsible for the Mumbai assault on Wednesday night, takes its title from the Deccan plateau that covers much of south India.
The outfit sent emails to local media saying it carried out the attacks.
One of the gunmen holed up in the Trident hotel told the India TV channel by phone on Thursday that the little-known terror outfit wanted an end to the persecution of Indian Muslims and the release of all fellow Islamic militants detained in India.
"Muslims in India should not be persecuted. We love this as our country but when our mothers and sisters were being killed, where was everybody?" he said from inside the hotel, which was surrounded by army commandos.
A similarly shadowy group calling itself the Indian Mujahedeen claimed responsibility for serial blasts in Delhi in September, which killed 20 people, and bombings in the western city of Ahmedabad in July when 45 died.
Another group, the Islamic Security Force-Indian Mujahedeen, said it was behind explosions last month in India's north-east state of Assam that killed 80.
It is unclear whether the various groups are connected, but retired senior security official B Raman has said their chosen names were a "bid to Indianise" the Islamic militant movement.

We don’t hate you. In fact, we love you so much that we want you to go to heaven. Now.
“One of the gunmen holed up in the Trident hotel told the India TV channel by phone on Thursday that the little-known terror outfit wanted an end to the persecution of Indian Muslims and the release of all fellow Islamic militants detained in India.
An appropriate response would be to drown 1/4 of those detained islamic terrorists in pig sh!t, and then announce that the remaining 3/4 will be drowned in pig sh!t upon the next terrorist attack (by muslims, but aren’t they all).
“Indian” Muslims? I thought in 1947 that “Indian Muslims” wanted a homeland and so carved out the states of Pakistan and Bangladesh?
Ceterum censeo, Mecca et Medina delenda est
well they hunted Indians, Jews, Brits and Americans
This sounds like the Muslims who rioted because the Pope said Islam was violent. “Kill anyone who says Islam is not a religion of Peace”
Too kind.
Impale them alive on spikes lining the highways.
Vlad the Impaler knew how to turn back the Ottoman muslim hordes.
Islam is garbage.
“Stop hating us or we’ll kill you!”
Fixed.
Garbage can be recycled or made compost. An evil philosophy is useless.
Naaaa- don’t hate us.
We just terrorize the world- as our Death Cult instructs us
to do-love death,want to subjugate all of humanity or kill it and think the 10th century is the future.
Women in shrouds, children with bomb belts, asses in the air woshipping Satan- what’s to hate?
And these troglydytes infected with their disease of a ‘religion’ actually are surprised they are hated????!!!
We need another Crusade- and we need it worldwide and NOW!!!
