MUMBAI, India (AP) - Thousands of Mumbai residents lit candles, offered flowers and bowed their heads in remembrance of the 188 people killed a year ago Wednesday when bombs ripped apart seven commuter trains in this city.
Commuters placed red and white flowers and burned incense sticks at suburban railway stations that were targeted in the July 11, 2006, attacks at the peak of the evening rush hour. More than 800 people were wounded.
"I still check the luggage racks to see if there is a weird-shaped bag or if someone has left behind a package," said college student Vaishali Barve, whose left arm bears deep scars from the blast at Mahim station.
