An Indian court has convicted 12 of 13 suspects over the bombings of seven Mumbai commuter trains in July 2006, which killed more than 180 people and wounded hundreds more.
On Friday, Judge Yatin D. Shinde found the suspects guilty of murder and criminal conspiracy charges.
On July 11, 2006, seven bombs exploded within less than 20 minutes on the packed commuter trains during the evening rush hour in Mumbai.
The suspects, who are accused of planning the blasts that ripped through the trains, face the death penalty. One of the 13 accused was, however, acquitted of all charges.
The judge added that he would announce the final sentences on Monday after hearing arguments from the prosecutors and defense attorneys.
Prosecutors say the attack was hatched by Pakistan's spy agency, Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), and carried out by operatives from Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Tayyaba, an al-Qaeda-linked militant group.
Pakistan has denied the Indian claims.
The announcement of the suspects’ sentences next week will bring to an end a trial that lasted eight years.
