NEW DELHI  Two men and a woman convicted of bombing attacks in Mumbai in 2003 will be executed by hanging, an Indian court ruled Thursday.

More than 50 people were killed and about 200 were wounded in August 2003 when bombs in taxis exploded near the Gateway of India arch in downtown Mumbai, formerly Bombay, and in a crowded shopping district. Indian investigators linked the bombs to the Pakistani militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba. The same group has been blamed for the attacks last November in Mumbai that killed more than 160 people.

The three people sentenced to death on Thursday  Ashrat Shafiq Mohammed Ansari; Syed Mohammed Haneef Abdul Rahim; and his wife, Fahmeeda Syed Mohammed Haneef  were convicted of murder last month. Investigators said they were also responsible for a third bomb planted on a bus in July 2003, which killed two. A daughter of Mr. Rahim and Ms. Haneef, Farheen Syed, also was charged in 2003, but was later released.

The three plan to appeal the verdict to the Bombay High Court, their lawyers said.
