Five years hence, the paperwork of the death reference of seven convicts is now ready, but the hearing could not start due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. The neo-JMB militants, armed with pistols, sub-machine guns, choppers and grenades, had taken around 40 people hostages, including restaurant staff and guests. Among the diners, they killed an Indian girl, nine Italians, seven Japanese, one Bangladeshi-born American, and two Bangladeshis.
