Yakub Memon, convicted for the 1993 terrorist attacks in India’s western metropolis Mumbai that killed more than 250 people, was hanged

early Thursday morning.

Memon was executed on his 53rd birthday at a prison near Nagpur, about 14 hours from Mumbai, following the rejection of a last-ditch mercy

plea from his lawyers for a 14-day stay on his execution so he could prepare for death and say goodbye to his family.
