Overview
- Police say Dr Umar un Nabi gave his phone to his brother to discard; investigators recovered the damaged device from a water body and forensically extracted multiple videos, including an 80‑second monologue defending suicide attacks.
- The National Investigation Agency has identified Nabi as the driver who carried out the November 10 vehicle-borne blast near the Red Fort, confirmed through DNA matched to his mother.
- Delhi Police are verifying contacts from Nabi’s call records and say the group used code words such as “D6,” “biryani,” and “dawat,” with probes examining a suspected plan for attacks around December 6.
- Three doctors linked to Al Falah University — Muzammil Ganaie, Shaheen Shahid Ansari and Adeel Rather — have been arrested, and the NIA has taken Jasir Bilal Wani into custody over alleged technical support, including work on drones.
- The Enforcement Directorate has arrested Al Falah group chairman Jawad Ahmed Siddiqui under PMLA even as investigators highlight earlier seizures of roughly 2,900 kg of explosive precursors and note rising political criticism after the video surfaced.
