The quality of the footage was poor and the faces of Kasab and Ismail were not clearly seen.

Footage of cameras in the main waiting hall of the terminus, where maximum casualties took place, was not available since the devices placed there were not functioning on the day and were scheduled for maintenance.

Footage recorded by the cameras on the suburban section of the terminus was mainly screened in the court.

The entire footage, recorded after 2130 hours on November 26, runs into one hour and fifteen minutes, but the court has
viewed only 15 minutes which were relevant to the case.

Images from one camera showed the two gunmen moving about in the main waiting hall of CST and one of them firing at
police personnel from a distance.
