Doctor Linked to Delhi Bombing; Medical Network Under Investigation
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has launched an extensive investigation into the recent suicide bombing near the Red Fort in Delhi, which claimed nine lives and injured over 20 others. The prime suspect, Dr. Umar Mohammed, an Al Falah Medical College physician, is believed to have ties to a Jaish-e-Mohammad sleeper cell, with connections to handlers in Bahawalpur, Pakistan. Authorities have arrested several associates, including Dr. Adeel Ahmad Rather and Dr. Mujammil Shakeel, and seized approximately 2,900 kg of bomb-making materials. Investigators are mapping out a network of medical professionals allegedly involved in a white-collar terror module spanning multiple states, raising alarm over the radicalization of educated individuals. The case underscores the pressing need for enhanced security measures and vigilance in countering the evolving tactics of terror organizations, as intelligence agencies continue to trace communication and funding sources linked to this alarming resurgence of terrorism within the country.
