Police claim Mumbai bombers took cocaine, LSD before carrying out attacks
December 2nd, 2008 - 12:41 pm ICT by ANI ( 2 comments ) London/Mumbai, Dec.2 (ANI): The terrorists who struck prominent targets in Mumbai last week, killing 195 people and wounding a further 295, may have pumped themselves with cocaine and LSD to keep going during their murderous three-day rampage.
The Mirror quotes police sources in the Indian financial capital as saying that the tests on the bodies of dead Islamic fanatics have revealed traces of stimulant drugs.
One said: We found injections containing traces of cocaine and LSD left behind by the terrorists and later found drugs in their blood. There was also evidence of steroids, which isnt uncommon in terrorists. These men were all toned, suggesting they had been doing some heavy training for the attacks. This explains why they managed to battle the commandos for over 50 hours with no food or sleep.
The lone survivor of the attack A. A. Kasav is said to have told interrogators the attack was meticulously planned six months ago at a training camp in Pakistan.
Meanwhile, a Muslim graveyard in Mumbai has said it will not bury the nine dead gunmen.
Spokesman Hanif Nalkhande said: They are not Muslims. Islam does not permit this sort of barbaric crime. (ANI)

I dont believe the a human who is under the influence of especially LSD can go on a killing spree with such precision…But Cocaine can certainly help in such circumanstance since under the affects of Cocaine one does not feel a need to eat and can actually sustain 4 days without food and can actually not sleep for 3-4 dayz on Coke provided he keeps on doing it after certin intervals of time–It is my personal experience with Coke and LSD—
So i will rule out LSD but will again point towards Cocaine and Speed (narcotics) which can induce a deprived state of eating and sleeplessness..

too bad the LSD molecule has a half-life of about 30 minutes in a high oxygen environment, i.e. your body. thus you cannot test a dead man’s blood for LSD…notice they just said they found “stimulants” in the blood, not any real proof of LSD.
