A 35-year-old doctor from Jammu and Kashmir, Umar Un-Nabi, has been identified as a key suspect in the recent Red Fort blast that killed 10 people and injured several others. The investigation has revealed that Umar was part of a terror network that was busted in Faridabad, where security agencies recovered nearly 3,000kg of ammonium nitrate. According to officials, Umar had direct ties with two doctors linked to the terror module network, including Adeel Ahmed Rather, who had connections with Jaish-e-Mohammed and Ansar Ghazwat-ul-Hind. The two doctors had allegedly stored explosives at the raided Faridabad site. Umar's connection to the Faridabad raids led investigators to suspect that he tried to destroy evidence after the operation. He allegedly drove to Delhi with ammonium nitrate fuel oil and a detonator, fearing that the police could narrow down on him. The bomb used in the Red Fort explosion was described as 'premature' and 'not fully developed', likely due to Umar's panic and desperation. Police have established that Umar was driving the Hyundai i20 car that exploded near Red Fort, and the explosives used in the bomb were from the same consignment recovered in Faridabad. Umar's activities became increasingly suspicious after the November 9 raids in Faridabad, where he went into hiding and stopped attending his medical duties. He used multiple mobile numbers, which were switched off after October 30. A CCTV footage showed Umar driving the same i20 car minutes before the explosion, and he was also seen driving the car in a Faridabad CCTV footage from October 29. The investigation has revealed that Umar and his associates were planning the Red Fort blast at the university. The police have established a connection between Umar and the Faridabad terror network, and are probing deeper into the case to uncover more details.
