An Indian court put off until next month a final verdict on the 1993 serial bomb blasts in the country's financial hub that killed 257 people. The series of 13 blasts in Mumbai, including at the Bombay Stock Exchange building, a cinema hall and a busy market, was the deadliest bomb attack in India. "The trial court has commenced delivery of judgement against all the 123 accused but the final verdict will come on September 12," public prosecutor Ujjawal Nikam told reporters. "On that day, the court will announce who are guilty and who are innocent," he added. Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt is among the accused and was arrested when two suspects said he had bought an assault rifle from them. He was released on bail after over a year in prison.
