Suspected Red Fort suicide bomber Dr. Umar Nabi went underground three days before Monday's attack, switching off his phone after learning police sought him following Dr. Adil and Dr. Muzamil's arrests. The doctor duo's interrogation led authorities to recover 2,900 kg explosive material, including ammonium nitrate, from Faridabad, Haryana. Police raided Dr. Umar's Koyal village home in Pulwama, arresting his mother, two brothers, and father for DNA sampling against bomber remains. The 33-year-old's colleague Dr. Sajad remains in custody. Twenty kilometers away, police detained plumber brothers Amir and Umar Rashid from Samboora village. Investigation began October 19 after Jaish-e-Mohammed posters surfaced in Nowgam Srinagar, unveiling a worrying white-collar radicalized professional terrorist ecosystem. (PC: X/@shorts91)

A devastating blast destroyed a Hyundai i20 near Delhi's Red Fort Metro Station Gate No. 1 at 6:50 pm Monday, killing ten people with several critically injured. Agencies invoked UAPA, treating it as planned terror attack. Forensic teams collected 42 exhibits including car parts and gas cylinder fragments. Terror suspect Dr. Umar Mohammad allegedly drove the vehicle through central Delhi areas like Connaught Place at 2:30 am, later Mayur Vihar before the explosion at a red light. Investigators suspect high-grade military explosives based on blast intensity and scene conditions. Preliminary probe suggests the module's handler operated from abroad, indicating possible foreign connection. NIA has formally assumed investigation as nationwide alerts remain active. Sonamarg traders held solidarity candle march Tuesday. (PC: X)

The Red Fort blast investigation reveals connections to a "transnational and interstate" terror module recently busted by Jammu Kashmir police, rooted in Pulwama district. Security sources believe the module planned something significantly larger than Monday's attack, but plans unraveled late October. The Hyundai i20 driver is suspected to be Dr. Umar Nabi, a Pulwama resident employed at Faridabad's Al-Falah School of Medical Sciences. Two module members, Dr. Muzammil Ahmad Ganai from Pulwama (Al Falah employee) and Dr. Adeel Majeed Rather from Qazigund (Saharanpur hospital worker) were arrested late October. Police seized 358 kg suspected ammonium nitrate explosives from Ganai's Faridabad Dhauj village rented home, suggesting officials averted a catastrophic attack.

An initial probe into the Red Fort blast in Delhi suggests the explosion was accidental, caused by panic while suspects were transporting an unfinished improvised explosive device (IED), sources said. The blast killed nine people and injured several others. Investigators believe recent nationwide raids and the recovery of 2,900 kg of bomb-making chemicals in Haryana’s Faridabad may have triggered fear among the suspects. The IED was improperly assembled, which limited its impact. Officials found no crater or projectiles at the site, supporting the accidental blast theory. The main suspect, Dr Umar Nabi from Jammu and Kashmir, had gone missing three days earlier. (PC: NDTV)

Dr Umar Un Nabi, the main suspect in the Delhi Red Fort car blast, was earlier dismissed from a Jammu and Kashmir hospital for negligence that led to a patient’s death. Nabi, once a senior resident at Government Medical College, Anantnag, was accused of being absent during a critical patient’s treatment. A hospital inquiry committee, led by senior doctors, confirmed his misconduct and recommended his termination. Investigators believe Nabi was driving the car that exploded near Red Fort, killing at least ten people. His DNA is being matched with samples from the blast site to confirm his identity. (PC: X)

LM Tulip English School in Sakinaka, Mumbai, has openly defied a Supreme Court directive mandating removal of stray dogs from schools, hospitals, and public transport hubs. The school issued a letter on November 8, declaring its refusal to displace its two resident dogs, Yeva and Pandu, who have lived on campus for 14 years. Principal Saloni Kudalkar, an animal lover, emphasized their role as protectors and companions, noting they have never harmed anyone. Staff, students, and caretakers expressed deep emotional attachment, insisting the dogs are integral to the school community. The school argues removal would only invite new strays without care networks, urging authorities to reconsider the directive. (PC: India Today)

The family of Dr Umar Un Nabi, the suspected Red Fort blast suicide bomber, expressed disbelief over his alleged involvement in the terror attack that killed 13 people. His sister-in-law Muzamil described him as an introvert who focused solely on studies and work, lacking many friends. Security forces detained Nabi's husband, brother-in-law, and mother-in-law for questioning. The family last spoke with Nabi on Friday when he mentioned being busy with examinations. Recently engaged and having visited home two months ago, Nabi worked at Al-Falah Medical College in Faridabad. Preliminary findings suggest he transported explosive materials to Delhi. Investigators believe he died in the blast while inside the Hyundai i20.

Dr Shaheen Saeed, a lady doctor from Uttar Pradesh, has been arrested for her critical role in financing and facilitating the Delhi Red Fort blast and Faridabad terror module. Intelligence sources reveal she was associated with Dr Umar, who drove the exploding car killing twelve people. Shaheen was radicalised during Jaish-e-Mohammed's drive to establish a women's brigade for psychological warfare in India, overseeing female recruitments. Investigators believe she helped pool Rs 35-40 lakh for funding the attack. She made multiple visits to Jammu and Kashmir and used encrypted medical welfare and NGO channels to mask fund transfers. The vehicle containing recovered weapons was traced to her name, deepening her conspiracy involvement. (PC: India Today)
