Two attempts were made prior to 26/11: Headley

David Coleman Headley, who deposed before a special Mumbai court on Monday, in a shocking revelation stated that two attempts were made prior to the final attack on November 26, 2008.

According to Headley, the first attempt was made in September 2008, which failed because the boat hit some rocks in the ocean. The people on board were saved as they were wearing life jackets. However, the weapons and explosives were lost.

He said that the second attempt was made after a month in October 2008.

"Those involved in first attempt were involved in this as well, but the attack failed," he said.

Headley further said that it was in the third and final attempt that the attack was successful on November 26, 2008.

Headley is presently revealing the sequence of events and planning behind the 26/11 terror attacks before a special Mumbai court.
