Ujjawal Nikam moved an application before the Special Sessions Court citing some of the evidence in the shape of document, which was collected during the course of investigation, was required to be sent to the Government of Pakistan as per their demands because Pakistan would need these evidences to prosecute some accused arrested there in 26/11 attack case.

The court on Wednesday would also frame charges against Kasab and two other accused — Fahim Ansari and Mohammad Sabahuddin Ahmed — on Wednesday and would give them an opportunity to plead to the charges.

The prosecution also asked the judge to issue non-bailable warrant against the 35 accused of Mumbai terror attacks, including Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, alleged mastermind of the Mumbai terror attacks, who are wanted by the police.
