The National Security Guard, which is engaged in a gun battle with the terrorists at Taj Hotel in Mumbai, said all but one terrorists were killed in the encounter and hoped to wrap up the flush-out operation at the Trident-Oberoi hotel and Nariman House very soon.
"There is one terrorist in the Taj Hotel. He has been injured and I think we will be able to mop up the operation there very quickly," Director General of NSG J K Dutt said.
He said the injured terrorist has not yet been captured but "we will be able to do so soon".
Dutt said two terrorists are holed up on the 8th floor of the Trident Hotel.
"As far as Trident is concerned, yes, we have engaged two terrorists on the 8th floor," he said.
He said that the operation to clean up Nariman House was still going on.
