The US trial of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) operative David Coleman Headley is causing much furor internationally. And closer home, city gaming company Games2win.com has launched a video game, allowing people to punish India's most famous inmate and 26/11 perpetrator, Ajmal Kasab. Called Kill Kasab,
the game, that was launched earlier this week, lets players enter Mumbai's Arthur Road Jail and punish the convicted terrorist. The game has already become the most played game on Games2win.com, almost immediately after its release.
The idea for this game arose after the death of Al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden. At that time, there were a lot of tweets like, 'Nobody is safe in Pakistan, not even Laden. Everybody is safe in Hindustan, even Kasab!' "We realised that there is a lot of anger in India because Kasab has not yet got his due. 'Gamification' of news is something new that we are pioneering," says Raj Menon, director, Games2win.com, adding, "We now watch news live on TV, follow it on Twitter and discuss it on Facebook. So why not play a game on it?"
