Mr Qasab is alleged to have opened fire on commuters

Indian police have filed charges against the man identified as the sole surviving gunman from last November's deadly Mumbai (Bombay) attacks.

It is believed the charge sheet against Mohammed Ajmal Amir Qasab and others runs into thousands of pages.

Police say Mr Qasab and nine other gunmen attacked sites in the financial capital. More than 170 people died.

India accused Pakistan-based militants of the attacks. Pakistan has admitted they were partly planned on its soil.
