DNA Evidence Confirms Key Suspect in Red Fort Terror Attack
In a significant breakthrough in the Red Fort terror investigation, forensic analysis has definitively established that Dr Umar Nabi was operating the vehicle that exploded near the historic monument earlier this week. The DNA testing of samples collected from the blast site provides crucial evidence linking Nabi to the devastating attack.
Multiple Vehicles Connected to Terror Module
Investigators have made another important discovery in the case. Security forces have located and confiscated a red Ford EcoSport in Faridabad's Khandawali area that is believed to be connected to the terror plot. This development came as authorities continue to unravel the network behind Monday's violent incident.
The sequence of events unfolded rapidly on Monday when police first dismantled a terror cell with connections to banned organizations Jaish-e-Mohammed and Ansar Ghazwat-ul-Hind. Later that evening, a high-intensity explosion tore through a slowly moving car in the vicinity of Delhi's Red Fort, resulting in tragic consequences.
Casualties and Ongoing Investigation
The powerful blast claimed the lives of 12 people and left numerous others injured, creating panic in the central Delhi area. Emergency services responded immediately to the scene, transporting the wounded to nearby medical facilities for treatment.
Security agencies have intensified their probe into the terror connections, examining the relationship between the dismantled module and the executed attack. The recovery of the second vehicle in Faridabad suggests the possibility of a broader conspiracy that authorities are working to fully expose.
As the investigation progresses, security has been heightened around key landmarks and sensitive locations throughout the national capital region. Police are pursuing all leads to identify and apprehend any additional individuals involved in planning and supporting the attack.
