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)
