Delhi Blast: Delhi Police on Thursday morning discovered a severed hand on the roof of a shop near the Red Fort blast site, adding a chilling new dimension to the investigation into the November 10 explosion.

According to police officials, the remains were located just a few metres from the blast site, behind the Jain Temple near the Red Fort Metro Station. A shopkeeper reportedly spotted the hand and informed authorities, prompting the immediate arrival of police and forensic teams. The area was sealed off, and evidence was collected for detailed analysis.

The severed hand has been sent for forensic testing to establish the victim’s identity and determine whether it belongs to one of the blast victims. Investigators are also exploring whether the remains were displaced by the explosion or if they belonged to someone who was nearby when the blast occurred.

On Wednesday, Delhi Police released fresh CCTV footage capturing the moment a Hyundai i20 exploded near the Red Fort traffic signal on Monday, killing 12 people. The 11-second video shows the car detonating amid heavy traffic during peak hours, triggering chaos as flames engulf the vehicle and terrified commuters flee the scene.

The November 10 blast, which authorities have described as a terror attack, claimed at least 12 lives and injured several others. The Delhi Police Special Cell and the National Investigation Agency (NIA) are jointly leading the investigation.
