Delhi blast: NIA arrests another key associate linked to driver of car that exploded near Red Fort
The National Investigation Agency on Monday said that it has arrested an alleged key associate of Umar Nabi, the doctor who was believed to have been driving the car that exploded near Delhi's Red Fort metro station on November 10.
A day earlier, the agency had arrested another aide allegedly linked to Nabi, who was identified as Amir Rashid Ali. The NIA alleged that the Hyundai i20 car used in the blast was registered in Ali's name.
On Monday, the NIA identified the second man as Jasir Bilal Wani aka Danish, a resident of Qazigund in Jammu and Kashmir's Anantnag district.
He was arrested from Srinagar in connection with the case.
“NIA investigations have revealed that Jasir had allegedly provided technical support for carrying out terror attacks by modifying drones and attempting to make rockets ahead of the deadly car bomb blast…” the statement read.
Wani was an “active co-conspirator” behind the attack and had worked closely with Nabi to “plan the terror carnage”, the agency alleged.
The blast near the Red Fort metro station on November 10 had left 13 persons dead. Two days after the explosion, the Union government described it as a “terrorist incident”.
On Ali's arrest, the NIA on Sunday alleged that he had visited Delhi to facilitate the purchase of the Hyundai i20 car that was “eventually used as a vehicle-borne Improvised Explosive Device”.
The NIA on Sunday also said it had forensically established that Nabi, an assistant professor of medicine at Al-Falah University in Haryana's Faridabad, was driving the car that exploded. It added that it had seized another vehicle belonging to him, and was examining it for evidence.
Reports have claimed that Nabi was a key figure in a terror network spanning Kashmir, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh.
Hours before the blast, the police said that it had cracked an “inter-state and transnational terror module” in Faridabad and Uttar Pradesh's Saharanpur. Two doctors from Kashmir – Adeel Ahmad Rather and Muzamil Shakeel – were among those arrested in the alleged case.
The police said at the time that it had recovered 2,900 kg of improvised explosive device-making material in raids in several states.
In the backdrop of the blast and the terror module case, the Jammu and Kashmir Police on November 12 conducted raids at more than 300 locations in the Kashmir valley allegedly linked to persons affiliated with the banned Jamaat-e-Islami.
The actions came after intelligence that elements linked to the Jamaat-e-Islami, banned under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act, were trying to revive the organisation under different names, the police said.
The authorities in Jammu and Kashmir have not officially linked the terror module and blast cases with the ongoing raids.
