The National Investigation Agency conducted raids at eight locations across Pulwama, Shopian, and Kulgam districts in connection with a “white-collar” terror module behind the deadly Delhi Red Fort car blast.

NIA Raids in Kashmir's Pulwama Over Delhi Terror Probe

NIA Raids in Kashmir's Pulwama Over Probe

The National Investigation Agency conducted raids at eight locations across Pulwama, Shopian, and Kulgam districts in connection with a &ldquo;white-collar&rdquo; terror module behind the deadly Delhi Red Fort car blast.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Monday carried out raids at eight locations in Pulwama, Shopian and Kulgam districts of Kashmir in connection with a "white-collar" terror module that was behind a car blast near Delhi's Red Fort, officials said here.
The NIA teams conducted searches at the residence of Moulvi Irfan Ahmad Wagay in Shopian, officials said. Wagay has emerged as the mastermind of the radicalisation and recruitment of the 'white-collar' terror module busted early last month.
He was arrested by police in October, and the NIA took him into custody last month after taking over the probe into the car blast that left 15 people dead and several others injured.
Raids were also carried out at Koil, Chandgam, Malangpora and Samboora areas of Pulwama district, officials said, adding these locations were linked to people associated with the Delhi car blast case.
Additionally, the agency searched the residence of Dr Adeel Ahmad Rather, who was arrested from Uttar Pradesh's Saharanpur in the first week of November.
Further details are awaited.

The Enforcement Directorate conducted early morning raids at Al Falah University in Faridabad and multiple Delhi-NCR locations as part of its probe into alleged terror financing linked to the Red Fort blast case.

ED raids Al Falah University, linked persons in Delhi Red Fort blast case

The Enforcement Directorate conducted early morning raids at Al Falah University in Faridabad and multiple Delhi-NCR locations as part of its probe into alleged terror financing linked to the Red Fort blast case.

The Enforcement Directorate on Tuesday conducted simultaneous searches in Delhi-NCR against the trustees and promoters of Al Falah University of Faridabad, the varsity central to the Red Fort area car blast case, officials said.
Multiple teams of the federal probe agency raided at least 25 premises of the Al Falah trust and University establishment since 5:15 am, they said.
Teams of the agency raided an office location in Delhi's Okhla area with a security cordon being provided by the police and paramilitary forces.
Fifteen persons have been killed in the blast that took place on November 10 near the iconic monument in Delhi, and the role of a number of doctors linked to the University and in Kashmir is under the scanner of the anti-terror probe agencies.
"The operation forms part of an ongoing investigation into financial irregularities, use of shell companies, accommodation entities and money laundering. The role of Al-Falah Trust and related entities is under investigation," an ED official said.
The official said "key" personnel overseeing finance and administration of the trust and the University have also been covered in the raids.
The agency has taken cognisance of the first information reports filed by the NIA and the Delhi Police in the case. Till now, the NIA has arrested two persons, stated to be the alleged close aides of "suicide bomber" Dr Umar Nabi.
At least nine shell (dummy) companies linked to the group, all registered at a single address, are under the examination of the ED, according to the officials.
Preliminary findings point to multiple "risk" indicators consistent with shell-company behaviour like no physical presence or meaningful utility consumption at declared places of business and common mobile number and email across various companies and accounts.
The ED investigators have also found absence of EPFO/ESIC filings inconsistent with reported scale of operations and overlapping of directors/signatories and weak KYC trails across entities.
Instances of minimal salary disbursal through banking channels and absence of HR (human resource) records, apart from synchronised incorporation patterns and common contact coordinates across firms, have been detected at the varsity, the officials said.
In addition, prima facie discrepancies have been noted in claims regarding UGC and NAAC recognition, which indicate alleged non-compliance to norms established for educational institutions, the officials said.
The Al Falah varsity is located in the Dhouj area of Haryana's Faridabad district, and it is a medical college-cum-hospital.

A self-recorded video of Red Fort suicide bomber Dr Umar un Nabi shows his methodical planning and radicalised ideology, framing the attack as a “martyrdom operation” and offering insight into the extremist mindset.

Red Fort bomber Umar calls suicide bombing 'very misunderstood’ in an unseen video

A self-recorded video of Red Fort suicide bomber Dr Umar un Nabi shows his methodical planning and radicalised ideology, framing the attack as a &ldquo;martyrdom operation&rdquo; and offering insight into the extremist mindset.

A week after the deadly car blast near Delhi&rsquo;s iconic Red Fort, which claimed at least 14 lives and injured over 20, a chilling self-recorded video of the suicide bomber, Dr Umar un Nabi, has emerged, offering a rare glimpse into the radicalised mind behind the attack.
In the video, Dr Umar, speaking fluent English with a measured accent, discusses the concept of suicide bombing, which he describes as &ldquo;very misunderstood.&rdquo; He insists that what is commonly labelled a &ldquo;suicide bombing&rdquo; is actually a &ldquo;martyrdom operation&rdquo; in Islam.
&ldquo;One of the very misunderstood concepts is the concept of what has been labelled as suicide bombing. It is a martyrdom operation... known in Islam. Now, there are multiple contradictions; there are multiple arguments that have been brought against it,&rdquo; he says.&nbsp;
He explains that a &ldquo;martyrdom&rdquo; operation is when a person assumes they will die at a specific place and time, acting against the natural presumption of death. In his case, he adds, &ldquo;we don&rsquo;t have the situation,&rdquo; and cautions, &ldquo;Don't fear death.&rdquo;
Investigators believe the November 10 blast, which ripped through a busy street near the historic Red Fort, was accidental and that Dr Umar had planned a larger-scale suicide bombing in the future. The force of the explosion shattered shopfronts and caused panic across the Old Delhi area, one of the most crowded parts of the capital.&nbsp;
The video also makes it clear that the attack had been carefully planned, negating earlier speculation that the blast may have been triggered inadvertently during transportation of explosives.
Dr Umar, a doctor by profession, was the most radicalised member of the so-called &ldquo;white collar&rdquo; Faridabad terror module that carried out the attack. The module, allegedly linked to the Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammad terrorist group, reportedly included nine to ten members, among them five to six doctors. These individuals used their positions at the tainted Al-Falah University to procure chemicals and other materials necessary for explosives.
Investigators believe Dr Umar recorded the video as a means to brainwash others, demonstrating the methodical and deeply radicalised mindset of the bomber. His articulate discussion of suicide bombing and martyrdom reveals that he had reflected extensively on these subjects, presenting a calm and composed fa&ccedil;ade while justifying a heinous act.

The NIA has exposed a sophisticated terror plot behind the Delhi blast, revealing that the module planned drone-based and rocket-style explosive attacks before executing a suicide car bombing near Red Fort.

NIA uncovers Hamas-style drone-weaponisation plot behind Delhi blast conspiracy

The NIA has exposed a sophisticated terror plot behind the Delhi blast, revealing that the module planned drone-based and rocket-style explosive attacks before executing a suicide car bombing near Red Fort.

As the probe into the deadly Delhi blast intensifies, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has uncovered an even more sinister terror conspiracy, revealing that the white-collar terror module behind the attack had planned to weaponise drones and develop rocket-style explosives before eventually resorting to a suicide car bomb.
Investigators said the group initially intended to carry out rocket bomb attacks across Delhi and other high-security zones, modifying drone technology to create a rocket-based explosive delivery system capable of causing large-scale casualties and panic&mdash;tactics commonly employed by outfits such as Hamas and ISIS.
The plot has drawn parallels with the Hamas attack against Israel on October 7, 2023, during which drones were used as a primary weapon of disruption and destruction.
According to sources, the terrorists attempted to create powerful drones fitted with large batteries to carry heavier bombs and cameras, planning to fly a weaponised drone over a crowded area for maximum casualties.
Many nations have been preparing for such drone-based threats, and India too has been strengthening its drone strike and anti-drone units at scale.
The NIA discovered the magnitude of this threat following two major arrests made within 48 hours.
One key suspect, Jasir Bilal Wani, alias Danish, a resident of Jammu and Kashmir, was arrested in Srinagar.
Described by the NIA as an &ldquo;active co-conspirator&rdquo; of the suicide bomber, Wani allegedly provided crucial technical support for modifying drones and attempting to build rocket-based explosives.
A political science graduate, he had been intensely radicalised by key accused Dr Umar un Nabi over several months and was being prepared as a suicide bomber.
He admitted to meeting members of the &ldquo;Doctor module&rdquo; in October last year at a mosque in Kulgam, after which he was taken to a rented accommodation near Al Falah University in Haryana&rsquo;s Faridabad.
Prior to Wani&rsquo;s arrest, the NIA had detained another suspect, Amir, also from Jammu and Kashmir, who played a crucial role in procuring the vehicle used by Dr Umar.
With these arrests, investigators were able to piece together how the module attempted to rope in multiple technical experts to execute their plan, analysing digital devices, communication trails, and suspicious procurement patterns to identify collaborators and assess the extent of the drone-weaponisation efforts.
When their rocket and drone attack plans failed, the terror group moved ahead with a car bomb.
On November 10, a Hyundai i20 packed with Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) detonated on a busy road near Delhi&rsquo;s Red Fort, killing fourteen people and injuring dozens.
The explosion took place just hours after police seized a massive cache of explosives from Faridabad-based Al Falah University, exposing what investigators have described as a highly coordinated and sophisticated attack plotted by a &ldquo;white-collar terror network.&rdquo;
The suicide bomber who drove the explosive-laden vehicle has been identified as Dr Umar un Nabi, a Kashmiri doctor associated with Al Falah University.
Several doctors and others linked to the module have been arrested, with raids continuing across Kashmir, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Delhi.
The NIA has stated that it is examining all angles and pursuing multiple leads as the investigation widens.

Delhi court sent Amir Rashid Ali, accused in the Red Fort blast that killed 13 and injured several on November 10, to 10-day NIA custody. The car used in the attack was registered in his name.

Red Fort Blast: Amir Rashid Ali Remanded

Delhi court sent Amir Rashid Ali, accused in the Red Fort blast that killed 13 and injured several on November 10, to 10-day NIA custody. The car used in the attack was registered in his name.

A Delhi court on Monday sent Red Fort blast accused Amir Rashid Ali to 10-day NIA custody.&nbsp;
The accused was produced before the Principal District and Sessions judge. Media persons were not allowed to enter the court.&nbsp;
Thirteen people were killed and several were injured after an explosives-laden car exploded near the Red Fort in the national capital on November 10.&nbsp;
A doctor from Jammu and Kashmir's Pulwama, Umar Nabi, was driving the car and had links to a "white collar" terror module busted with the recovery of explosives mainly from Faridabad in Haryana.&nbsp;
As per officials, Ali was arrested by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Sunday, and the Hyundai i20 car that exploded was registered in his name.&nbsp;

New CCTV footage reveals Red Fort blast suspect Dr Umar Nabi entering Delhi through Badarpur toll and later walking near Ramlila Maidan mosque before the explosion that killed 13.

New CCTV footage reveals Red Fort blast suspect Dr Umar Nabi entering Delhi through Badarpur toll and later walking near Ramlila Maidan mosque before the explosion that killed 13.

Fresh CCTV footage from the day of the blast near the Red Fort has surfaced, showing prime suspect Dr Umar Nabi entering Delhi through the Badarpur border toll plaza and later walking near a mosque close to the Ramlila Maidan, police said on Thursday.
In the footage from the Badarpur toll plaza, Umar can be seen driving a white Hyundai i20 car and stopping at the toll gate around 8.02 am on November 10, the day of the explosion. The car pauses briefly as Umar takes out cash and hands it to the toll operator before proceeding.

&nbsp;
Investigators said Umar, who was wearing a mask, repeatedly looked toward the CCTV camera &mdash; apparently aware that security agencies were on his trail. A large bag can also be seen placed on the back seat of the car, believed to have contained explosives, a senior police officer said.
&ldquo;His repeated glances toward the CCTV camera suggest that he knew the agencies were looking for him, and he was consciously monitoring his surroundings,&rdquo; the officer added.
Later that day, another CCTV clip from a lane near a mosque close to the Ramlila Maidan shows Umar walking along a narrow stretch before briefly turning his head &mdash; the moment his face is clearly captured on camera. Police suspect that he visited the mosque to offer prayers before proceeding toward Red Fort.

A massive blast rocked the national capital on Monday evening when the same Hyundai i20 car exploded near the Red Fort at 6.52 pm, killing 13 people and injuring several others. The impact of the explosion damaged several nearby vehicles and scattered debris across the road.
Officials said Umar was seen in multiple CCTV clips across Delhi on the day of the incident, including one from the Sunehri Masjid parking lot near the Red Fort, where he arrived at 3.19 pm and left at 6.28 pm, just 24 minutes before the explosion.
Forensic teams have collected over 40 samples from the blast site, including mangled remains of the vehicle and human body parts, while a special team of experts has been constituted to analyse the material and determine the type of explosives used.
Police said efforts are underway to trace Umar&rsquo;s possible handlers and reconstruct his movements throughout the day to determine whether he had any accomplices.

He emphasised that while terrorism may attempt to instil fear, it cannot break the unyielding spirit of nations determined to protect peace and humanity.
Global Solidarity and Ongoing Probe
Netanyahu&rsquo;s message comes amid widespread international support for India following the Red Fort explosion, which authorities are investigating as a possible terror attack.
In the wake of the incident, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has formed a &ldquo;dedicated and comprehensive&rdquo; investigation team to probe the blast, which officials believe was carried out by a Jaish-e-Mohammad module uncovered earlier by Indian agencies.
The NIA team, comprising senior officers of the rank of Superintendent of Police and above, will ensure a coordinated and in-depth probe under the supervision of top leadership.
The decision followed the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) formally handing over the case to the NIA, citing a clear terror angle behind the explosion.
Following the transfer, the agency registered a case and launched a detailed investigation to trace those responsible and identify any broader network involved.
Sources said the NIA is working closely with central and state security agencies and examining multiple angles &mdash; including whether the explosion was deliberate or accidental &mdash; as part of its ongoing inquiry.

Investigative Leads and Suspects
Police sources said forensic examination of mobile dump data has linked the attack to Dr Muzammil Ganaie, a prime suspect in the white-collar terror module recently disrupted by security agencies. Investigators found that Dr Muzammil made multiple reconnaissance visits to the Red Fort area in January this year, as confirmed by his mobile data.
A senior police officer, speaking on condition of anonymity, said, "These visits were part of a detailed reconnaissance ahead of a planned attack on January 26. Intense patrolling around the monument at the time likely foiled the earlier attempt."
Officials added that Dr Muzammil and his associate, Dr Umar Nabi, repeatedly surveyed the area to study security deployments and crowd patterns. Their movements were corroborated using mobile-tower location records and CCTV footage from nearby cameras.
Authorities are now analyzing Dr Umar&rsquo;s digital footprints to determine if he was in contact with anyone immediately before the blast. Investigators are also tracing funding for the module, the source of explosives, and whether other network members conducted similar reconnaissance or provided logistical support to the arrested suspects.
NIA Takes Over Probe The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has taken over the investigation and is examining CCTV, mobile data, and other forensic leads. The agency is working to piece together the planning, movements, and execution of the attack that left one of Delhi&rsquo;s busiest historic areas reeling in fear.

High Alert in Delhi After Explosion Near Red Fort Metro Station

Delhi High Alert: Explosion Near Red Fort Station

Following the deadly Red Fort blast that killed 12 people, Delhi Police has intensified security checks across the capital. Sniffer dogs, metal detectors, and anti-sabotage teams have been deployed at sensitive locations.

The Delhi Police has been put on high alert and massive checking drives are being carried out across the national capital following the powerful explosion near the Red Fort metro station that left 12 people dead and many injured, officials said on Wednesday.
Police personnel, along with paramilitary forces, are deployed in large numbers at all the entry and exit points of Delhi. Vehicles entering and leaving the city are being thoroughly checked as part of the intensified security measures, they said.
Senior police officers are personally supervising the security checks at interstate borders, including Ghazipur, Singhu, Tikri, and Badarpur. Vehicles are being checked randomly at markets, metro stations, railway terminals and bus stands to ensure that no suspicious movement goes unnoticed.
A senior police officer said that all district units and specialised wings have been directed to remain on alert and increase patrolling in crowded areas, especially near tourist spots, malls and religious places. "We are taking no chances. The focus is on maintaining public confidence and ensuring that the city remains secure," the officer said.
Sniffer dogs, metal detectors and anti-sabotage teams are pressed into service at sensitive locations. The police have also asked residents to remain vigilant and report any suspicious objects or persons immediately through emergency helplines.
Meanwhile, coordination meetings are held between the Delhi Police, Intelligence Bureau, and paramilitary forces to review the security situation and assess inputs related to the blast.
The enhanced security measures will continue, officials said.

Red Fort blast in Delhi kills 12: What we know so far

Delhi blast near Red Fort kills 12. FIR under UAPA filed; suspect linked to Faridabad terror module. Probe and security tightening continue.

A day after a powerful car blast near Delhi&rsquo;s Red Fort left 12 people dead and several injured, the investigation has revealed chilling details pointing to a possible terror conspiracy with links to a recently busted module in Faridabad.
<h3>FIR Registered Under UAPA, Raids Across Delhi</h3>
The Delhi Police on Tuesday registered an FIR under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) and the Explosives Act, invoking sections related to conspiracy and execution of a terror attack. Multiple raids were carried out across the national capital after preliminary findings suggested connections between the Red Fort blast and the Faridabad terror module.
The blast occurred on Monday evening near the Red Fort Metro Station, where a Hyundai i20 car exploded, gutting several nearby vehicles.
<h3>High-Level Security Meeting Led by Amit Shah</h3>
Union Home Minister Amit Shah convened a high-level review meeting at the North Block to assess the situation. The meeting was attended by Union Home Secretary Govind Mohan, IB Director Tapan Deka, Delhi Police Commissioner Satish Golcha, and NIA DG Sadanand Vasant Date. J&amp;K DGP Nalin Prabhat joined virtually to provide inputs, given the suspected Kashmir link to the case.
Shah visited the LNJP Hospital on Monday night to meet the injured and assured that &ldquo;those responsible will be brought to justice.&rdquo;
<h3>Suspect Identified as Pulwama-Based Doctor</h3>
According to police sources, the prime suspect is Umar Mohammad, a doctor from Pulwama, Jammu and Kashmir, allegedly associated with the Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) network. CCTV footage captured a masked man driving the Hyundai i20, later identified as Umar, moments before the blast near the Red Fort Metro parking area.
Sources said Umar had ties to the Faridabad terror module, where police had earlier seized 2,900 kg of explosives, including ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, and sulphur. Among this, 360 kg of highly inflammable material was recovered.
Officials suspect Umar carried out the blast fearing arrest after several members of his module were detained in Faridabad earlier on Monday.
<h3>The Faridabad Connection</h3>
Hours before the Delhi blast, eight individuals, including three doctors, were arrested in Faridabad as part of a joint operation between Haryana and Jammu &amp; Kashmir Police. The arrested individuals were allegedly running a &ldquo;white-collar terror network,&rdquo; using their professional backgrounds as cover for extremist activities.
Police believe Umar was closely linked to this group and that the Red Fort explosion was a desperate retaliatory act. A man named Tariq, also from Pulwama, is said to have provided Umar with the car used in the blast.
<h3>Explosives and Preliminary Findings</h3>
Initial forensic analysis suggests the use of ammonium nitrate mixed with fuel oil and detonators &mdash; similar to materials recovered from the Faridabad module. Police said the car had been parked for nearly three hours near the Red Fort before the explosion at 6:52 pm.
&ldquo;Final forensic reports are awaited,&rdquo; a police source said, adding that the possibility of a suicide bombing or a larger coordinated terror plan has not been ruled out.
<h3>Security Tightened Across Delhi</h3>
Following the explosion, the national capital has been placed on high alert. Security has been strengthened at airports, metro stations, bus terminals, and railway stations. All vehicles entering Delhi are being thoroughly checked at border points, with special focus on commercial carriers.
Teams have also conducted overnight searches in Daryaganj and Paharganj, verifying hotel records and questioning staff for any suspicious guests.
<h3>Traffic &amp; Metro Restrictions</h3>
The Red Fort Metro Station has been shut temporarily &ldquo;due to security reasons,&rdquo; the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) said on X. The Delhi Traffic Police issued an advisory restricting movement on Netaji Subhash Marg from Chatta Rail Cut to Subhash Marg Cut, urging commuters to use alternate routes until further notice.
<h3>Echoes of Past Attacks</h3>
The Red Fort has been the target of terror in the past.
December 2000: Three people were killed in a Lashkar-e-Taiba attack at the monument.
December 2001: A major strike targeted the Indian Parliament, killing 13, and bringing India and Pakistan close to war.
<h3>The Road Ahead</h3>
Investigating agencies including the Delhi Police, NIA, and Intelligence Bureau are jointly probing the case. Forensic experts are analyzing remains of the car and explosive residues. Officials said the probe will focus on funding routes, logistical support, and the network of sympathizers within and outside Delhi.
With the city on high alert and the investigation widening, authorities have assured citizens that no angle will be overlooked in uncovering the full scope of the conspiracy behind the Red Fort blast.
