London, Nov 29: Mumbai-born Gulam Noon, known as ‘Curry King’, was caught in the terror strike at Mumbai’s Taj Mahal hotel, and he lived to tell the tale.
It was for the second time that Noon had a miraculous escape in a terror strike in Mumbai. He had earlier escaped unhurt during the 1993 bomb blasts and he was staying at the Taj hotel at that time too.
Noon had booked a table for four at the hotel’s restaurant, but he felt unwell and decided to have the meal in his room. When the firing began, Noon thought of coming out of his room, but changed his mind and instead called the duty manager who told him not to do so.
