In the latest development in the Delhi blast case, a Pakistani handler of Jaish-e-Mohammad, named 'Hanzulla', shared a bomb-making video with Dr Muzamil Shakeel, one of the accused.

According to a report by Jagran.com, citing sources, Hunzalla appears to be a made-up name. He had shared about 42 videos of bomb-making to Shakeel. It is the same name that was found written on Jaish posters in Nowgam in October, which prompted intensified investigations, leading to the Faridabad 'White-collar' terror module.

The report added that the security agencies are tracing the alleged handler. The handler got in touch with Shakeel through Jammu and Kashmir-based Maulvi Irfan Ahmed, who formed the white collar terror module by radicalising these doctors.

After Shakeel's first recruitment, he met other doctors with a similar mindset, Muzaffar Ahmad, Adeel Ahmad Rather, and Shaheen Saeed, at Al-Falah University and recruited them.

The planning for a major terror attack was going on for months and the doctors were in constant touch with each other through a Telegram group.

The investigations have unravelled that Shakeel transported the explosives, and he handed over the i20 car to Dr Umar-un-Nabi, the suicide bomber, who triggered the blast in the said car, near the Lal Qila Metro Station on November 10.

The blast came a day after the Jaish poster-prompted crackdown led to a massive seizure of over 2,900 kg of explosives in Faridabad.

The doctors were planning a series of attacks in crowded places of Delhi-NCR using about 200 powerful IEDs.
