The NIA arrested Soyab, a Faridabad resident, for harbouring terrorist Umar Muhammad (Un Nabi) and providing logistical support ahead of the November 10 Red Fort car bombing. He is the seventh suspect in the case as investigations into the terror network continue.
A video of Dr Umar Mohammad, accused in the Delhi Red Fort car blast, reveals his “martyrdom operation” mindset. Authorities say the footage was meant to brainwash others, reflecting meticulous planning ahead of the attack that killed 13 people.
Investigators confirmed that Dr Umar Mohammad, a senior doctor from Faridabad’s Al Falah University, was driving the i20 car that exploded near Red Fort on November 10, killing eight people. DNA tests conclusively identified Umar from remains recovered inside the vehicle.
Initial investigations into the Red Fort car blast suggest it was a suicide attack planned to cause maximum damage after the Faridabad terror module was busted. Police suspect the involvement of Pulwama-based Dr. Umar Mohammad, linked to JeM and AGuH outfits
