It could very well be an inside job.
Former captain Michael Vaughan revealed he and the rest of the performance squad would have been in the hotel when it came under siege but for a late change of plans.

**"All our white Test kit is in one of the rooms at the Taj Mahal,"** said Vaughan in his Daily Telegraph column.
**"All the stuff was deposited there after England’s two practice games in Mumbai at the start of this tour. That’s how close the danger is. **
"This week I was due to be in Mumbai with the rest of England’s high performance squad. **It was only at the last minute that our training camp was switched to Bangalore. **
**“I don’t know why it was switched but we could have been there in one of those hotels when they were attacked.” **
Pietersen admitted the players had been taken aback by events and that the decision to fly home was correct.
