Overview
- NIA questioning of accused doctor Muzammil Ganaie details a pooled ₹26 lakh fund handed to Umar, with contributions attributed to Adeel, Muzaffar, Shaheen and Umar himself.
- Investigators say the group spent two years sourcing 26 quintals of NPK fertiliser plus ammonium nitrate, urea, remote‑trigger components and a deep freezer used to stabilise explosive mixes.
- Seizures include roughly 2,500–2,900 kg of IED precursors in Faridabad and a Russian‑origin AK rifle reportedly bought for about ₹5 lakh and recovered from Adeel Rather’s locker, along with other firearms.
- Agencies report a planned series of coordinated attacks by a cell of doctors and a cleric, internal rifts over ISIS versus al‑Qaeda leanings, and a likely premature car‑bomb detonation near the Red Fort.
- Probes now track layered handlers and overseas links including Turkey and Afghanistan, scrutinise Al‑Falah University, and log fresh actions such as the J&K SIA’s detention of technician Tufail and checks on absconders and two missing IIT Kanpur scholars.
