Latest book i read

Title: To the last bullet
Author: Vinita Kamte
Brief Note: A book on the life of Ashok Kamte, who was killed in the Mumbai 26/11 attacks by his wife Vinita Kamte.
Though this book is on the life of Ashok Kamte, in the first six chapters, Vinita Kamte describes about the Mumbai attacks and raises a number of questions on this.As we all are aware there is a number of questions that still remain unanswered on the Mumbai attacks. The most important being the killing of Hemant Karkare, Ashok Kamte and Vijay Salaskar.
Vinita Kamte describes her legal battle in which she has to use the RTI Act even to get the post-mortem report of her husband. The most important questions raised by Vinita are:"Who ordered this trio to go to the Cama Hospital?""Why hasnt the police control room replied to the calls made by Hemant Karkare and the local public on that night?"
Rakesh Maria, who was in charge of the control room is now the head of Maharashtra ATS!!
A nice book and truly touching in some pages.
The later part of the book details on Ashok Kamte's previous postings and about his family.
