This British couple were at the Taj Mahal hotel at the time of the attack.

Alistair Francis, said, "We were in our room didn't realize they were hand grenades."

These two British students were in the Leopold Cafe just next to the Taj Hotel when gunmen burst in on Wednesday night.

For 90 minutes they hid with sixty other people as grenades went off around them between bursts of gunfire.

It remained unclear how many people had been taken hostage, how many were hiding inside the hotels and how many dead still lay uncounted.
