'I
had
to
choose
between
either
my
luggage
or
my
life'

MUMBAI:
"He
had
the
look
of
a
man
who
was
trained
to
be
emotionally
unattached.
But
he
looked
highly
intelligent,
well
educated
and
professional.
He
even
had
a
very
innocent
face,''
said
Rama
Sedhu,
53,
who
was
at
the
long-distance
train
terminus
at
CST
when
the
terrorists
began
shooting
on
Wednesday
night.
Sedhu
was
with
three
other
friends
waiting
for
the
Chennai
Mail
to
take
them
home.
On
Thursday,
they
remained
stranded
at
the
station,
their
baggage
lost.
"I
was
trapped
for
about
15
minutes
before
I
could
flee.
The
terrorist
looked
no
more
than
25
years
old,
was
around
five
feet
in
height,
wore
no
mask
and
was
very
fair.
He
had
shortish
hair
and
was
lean.
He
wore
dark
clothes,''
said
S
Nagraj.
"I
had
to
choose
between
my
luggage
or
my
life.
We
don't
even
have
any
identification
on
us
and
can't
travel
back.''
When
the
firing
began,
Sedhu
lay
on
the
floor
to
protect
himself
while
Nagraj
fled
in
a
few
minutes.
"The
gunman
changed
the
magazine
in
his
gun
thrice
and
pumped
bullets
into
everyone
in
sight.
He
was
expressionless.
There
were
about
60
bodies
all
around
and
I
thought
Sedhu
had
died
too,''
said
Nagraj.
Sedhu
said
that
as
he
lay
watching
the
scene
unfold,
he
became
angry
at
his
own
helplessness.
"Some
of
the
police
were
targeted
while
the
others
ran
away.
People
were
frozen
in
fear
and
there
was
pin-drop
silence
all
around,
except
for
the
shooting,''
he
said.
Re-fresh,
the
recently
opened
food
court,
was
sprayed
with
at
least
17
bullets,
which
shattered
its
glass
walls.
A
bullet
also
hit
Mukesh
Agarwal,
uncle
of
the
proprietor,
seriously
injuring
him.
Riyaz
Khan,
the
manager,
looked
on
from
the
mezzanine
floor.
He
said
he
didn't
notice
the
gunmen
until
a
hand
grenade
exploded.
Khan
said
that
the
restaurant
and
parcel
depot
staff
transported
several
victims
to
hospital.
"I
haven't
eaten
since
last
night
and
I
don't
have
an
appetite.
I
went
home
this
morning
and
am
back
on
duty
even
though
my
wife
asked
me
not
to
go,''
said
Khan
on
Thursday
afternoon.
The
men
said
it
was
an
experience
they
won't
be
able
to
get
over
for
a
very
long
time.
Sedhu,
who
is
a
sound
and
recording
consultant
and
rubs
shoulders
with
movie
directors
down
South,
is
considering
making
a
movie.
