His Majesty King Abdullah offered his condolences to Indian President APJ Abdul Kalam and to the families of the victims of the terror attack on Bombay.

The King also condemned the attacks in the strongest possible terms. Eight bombs tore through packed commuter trains during Bombay's Tuesday evening rush hour, killing at least 190 people and wounding hundreds more.

In his cable, to the Indian president, King Abdullah said Jordan stood by India in countering all forms of terrorism.
