Dubai: The police and army should use tear gas, poison the drinking water, get armed commandos on the roof of the hotel, use water canons, let the army storm the hotel and kill the terrorists.
These and many similar suggestions are pouring in to the Mumbai Police Control Room located at Crawford Market as to how to flush out the terrorists.
"It is strange but true that we have not received a single panic call on our hotline number," said a policeman who spoke to Gulf News on the telephone on Friday from Mumbai.
Angry
The officer, who preferred to be called Constable Patil, said that the control room had also fielded a lot of telephone calls from overseas Indians.
"Some callers get angry regarding the delay in flushing out the terrorists while others want to start a debate on a discussion on their feelings about the terror attack," Constable Patil said.
