New Delhi: The National Security Guard (NSG) and the Marine Commandos early on Friday rescued 40 guests from The Trident Hotel (formerly known as Oberoi), 36 hours after they were taken hostage by terrorists believed to be affiliated to Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT).

A heavy exchange of fire between the security personnel and the terrorists was reported soon after the rescue. One terrorist was reportedly killed in the crossfire.

An NSG official said at least six hostages were feared dead.

“Terrorists don’t want to listen to anything. They are not ready to surrender. They are threatening to kill all the hostages,” he said.

At least 100 persons, including a World Bank official, are still suspected to be trapped inside the hotel.
