"How exactly did they embark upon the sea journey? Kasab was asked. On the fifteenth day of Ramzan, they were taken to a hilly area, where in addition to the firing practice, they were trained to assemble bombs with timers. They were also schooled to dismantle and assemble an inflatable dinghy and taught to remove its sea valve. They were trained to surreptitiously plant bombs below the driverās seat in running taxis. Soon their hair was cut and the beards shaved off. New clothes and shoes were purchased for them and they were also given watches set to Indian time. The labels on their clothes were removed to prevent identification. Their photographs were clicked to make fake identity cards to pass them off as Indian Hindus. To complete the Hindu impersonation, they were instructed not to forget tying the red sacred threads around their wrists before landing. They were then taken by a train to a LeT safe house in Azizabad in Karachi."
