Mumbai Jewish centre targeted in 2008 terrorist attacks reopens



Associated Press in Mumbai


Rabbis from across Asia are celebrating the reopening of a Jewish centre targeted by Pakistani gunmen who stormed through Mumbai on a 60-hour killing spree in 2008.

The attacks on the Chabad centre and other locations in India's financial capital left 166 people dead. Among them were six people from the orthodox Jewish centre, including Rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg and his wife. Their infant son escaped in the arms of his Indian nanny, and the two now live in Israel.
