- The grenade, hurled on the night of March 15–16, failed to detonate, but the attack was claimed by Pakistani gangster Shahzad Bhatti, citing communal motives.
- Investigations revealed that Singh allegedly provided training via video calls on handling grenades, and his involvement surfaced during the interrogation of the primary accused, Hardik Kamboj.
- Seven arrests have been made in the case so far, with central agencies like the NIA monitoring potential links to cross-border and gang networks.
