His advocate Abbas Kazmi said that he had given four story books in Urdu to the jailor two weeks ago and requested that they may be given to Qasab. Asked if Qasab enjoyed reading the books, "I am not aware whether he had read them. So far he has not made further request for such books," Kazmi said.
Qasab had urged for Urdu newspapers but the court had yesterday turned down his plea. The terrorist had previously said that he studied up to fourth standard and can read and write Urdu.
Qasab was keenly watching the court proceedings on Wednesday and did not display his usual mood swings when witnesses were deposing against him. The court had yesterday rebuked him for laughing all the while (during his trial) and told him to be "serious".
