Delhi Car Blast: The probe into the car blast near Delhi’s Red Fort, which killed 13 people and injured several others on Monday (Nov 10), has taken a significant turn. Forensic teams on Sunday recovered three 9mm cartridges from the site, including two live rounds and one empty shell. These cartridges are banned for civilian use and typically limited to security forces or those with special authorisation.
Forensic experts are determining whether the cartridges were fired at the scene or planted there as part of a staged attempt to mislead investigators.
Delhi Red Fort Car Blast Updates
Delhi Police’s Crime Branch has registered two FIRs against the university for alleged cheating and forgery flagged by the UGC and NAAC.
The new FIRs and detentions come amid an expanding multi-agency probe into the Red Fort blast that killed 13 people.
A police team visited the university’s Okhla office on Saturday to gather details of individuals under investigation.
The detentions occurred during coordinated raids in Dhauj, Nuh and nearby Haryana areas late Friday by the Special Cell and NIA.
Two detained doctors, Mohammad and Mustakim, were allegedly associated with Umar ul Nabi, the doctor identified as the car’s driver.
A separate FIR under UAPA has been filed by the Special Cell and transferred to the NIA for further investigation.
Officials have already arrested Dr Shaheen, a university faculty member, as part of efforts to uncover the broader conspiracy.
Investigators found that 32 vehicles were being prepared to transport explosives for coordinated attacks to avenge the Babri Masjid demolition.
The vehicles, including the Hyundai i20 that exploded, were intended for attacks on six Delhi targets on December 6, sources told NDTV.
Four key vehicles, Maruti Brezza, Swift Dzire, Ford EcoSport, and the exploded Hyundai i20, were chosen due to repeated ownership changes but have now been recovered.
