explosion caused by haste and deception
Preliminary investigation into the blast near the Red Fort has revealed that the blast may have been ‘accidental’ when a hastily made explosive device was being transported after the busting of an inter-state terrorist module. Officials gave this information on Tuesday. Police investigated the Red Fort blast case as a possible terrorist attack and focused on Omar Nabi, a doctor from Pulwama.
Explosion occurred after terror module was caught
This doctor from Pulwama was related to the terrorist module based in Faridabad, which was exposed after explosives were recovered from there. Sources said that the blast was carried out in panic and desperation following raids conducted by security agencies at several places in Delhi-NCR and Pulwama in Jammu and Kashmir to arrest suspects considered to be part of the terrorist module.
