Mustafa Dossa, a convict in the 1993 Mumbai blasts, died in Mumbai’s JJ Hospital on Wednesday. He was admitted to the hospital after he complained of chest pain on Tuesday.

This comes a day after the Central Bureau of Investigation sought capital punishment for Dossa and another Mumbai blasts accused Firoz Khan.

Dossa died due to cardiac arrest at 2.30 this afternoon, said hospital dean TP Lahane.

Dossa and four others were convicted on June 16 by a special court for their involvement in the blasts that killed over 257 people.
