Delhi Blast: ₹26 Lakh Terror Fund, Al Falah's Dark Links Exposed

The investigation into the deadly blast near Delhi's Red Fort has led to shocking revelations about a 'white collar terror module' allegedly linked to Al Falah University and its owner. At least 10 people lost their lives in the blast, and several others were injured. In a disturbing turn of events, the probe has uncovered that the five doctors accused in the terror module had raised a staggering ₹26 lakh to finance their strikes. The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has been told that the group spent nearly two years procuring explosives and remote-triggering devices. Three doctors – Dr Muzammil Ganaie, Shaheen Shahid, and Adeel Rather – have been arrested in connection with the case. However, Rather's brother Muzaffar is believed to be in Afghanistan, while Nissar ul-Hassan, who worked at Al-Falah Medical College, remains at large. The Al Falah University has been embroiled in a web of controversy, with investigators finding links between the institution and terror operatives. Mirza Shadab Baig, a fugitive from the Indian Mujahideen, was a former student of the university, where he completed his B.Tech in 2007. Baig is wanted for a series of explosions in 2008 and carries a reward of ₹1 lakh. The university's founder is facing scrutiny from the Enforcement Directorate (ED) over money laundering allegations. The ED claims that the founder and the Al Falah charitable trust generated over ₹415 crore in "dishonestly" obtained funds by misleading students and parents with false claims of NAAC accreditation and UGC recognition. The university has received a show-cause notice from the National Commission for Minority Educational Institutions over its minority status, following a probe linked two suspects in the Red Fort blast to the institution. The commission has summoned the university registrar and the Principal Secretary of the Haryana education department for a hearing on December 4.
