{ "title": "Red Fort Car Blast: Doctor Tied to Terror Module, Explosives Haul Linked to Deadly Explosion", "article": "An investigation into Monday's Red Fort car blast, which killed 13 people, has been handed over to India's National Investigation Agency (NIA). The cause of the explosion remains unknown, but a terror angle has emerged after the car was linked to a doctor named Umar Un Nabi, who is connected to a recent explosives haul in Haryana's Faridabad. The Hyundai i20 car, with the registration number HR26CE7674, was parked in a nearby lot around 4 pm on the day of the explosion. It had three occupants and was seen driving on the Chhata Rail Chowk before taking a U-turn and heading towards Lower Subhash Marg. A CCTV footage shows the car slowing down at a signal when the explosion occurred. Umar Un Nabi, a Kashmir-based doctor, has ties to a terror module linked to the seizure of a huge cache of explosive material in Faridabad. The explosives were found in accommodations rented by another Kashmiri doctor, Muzammil Shakil, whose terror module Dr Umar was also a part of. Dr Umar has been missing since the investigation into the Faridabad terror module began, and three of his relatives were picked up for questioning from Koil village in Pulwama district of south Kashmir. A DNA test will be conducted to confirm the identity of the deceased in the car. Raids were conducted in Jammu and Kashmir, resulting in the arrest of six people, including three family members of Dr Umar Un Nabi. The arrested individuals were part of a radicalized ecosystem that identified potential recruits, raised funds, and arranged logistics for terror activities. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah have vowed to bring the culprits to justice. The investigation is ongoing, and multiple CCTV videos of the car's movement on the day of the explosion have surfaced."
