Pulwama Doctor with Excellent Academic Record Named in Delhi Red Fort Blast Probe
Dr. Umar Nabi from Koil village in Pulwama, linked to a terror module, is the prime suspect in the Delhi Red Fort car blast that killed at least 10 people. The police seized his electronic devices during raids, and CCTV footage shows him waiting for hours near Red Fort before the explosion. Investigations reveal a network of medical professionals involved in terrorist logistics and planning multiple attacks.
Dr. Umar Nabi, a resident of Koil village in Pulwama and a doctor by profession, is the central figure in the terrorist investigation following the deadly car explosion near Delhi's Red Fort Metro Station on November 10, 2025, which resulted in at least 10 deaths and over 20 injuries. Authorities seized all electronic gadgets from his and his fiancee's residences. CCTV footage captures Dr. Umar driving a Hyundai i20 car and waiting for nearly three hours in a parking lot near the Red Fort before detonating the bomb. The explosive device, fueled by ammonium nitrate, was intended for a crowded place but the planned Red Fort parking site was closed, leading to an altered attack location. Dr. Umar reportedly went underground after police raids uncovered 2,900 kg of explosives and arrested associates linked to the terror module, which includes several doctors misusing professional credentials to acquire materials and plan attacks. Other doctors, such as Dr. Muzammil Ahmad Ganai and Dr. Shaheen Shahid, are implicated. Investigators suspect that attacks had been planned for national events such as Republic Day and Diwali. The probe highlights a complex network that includes organizing logistics, assembling explosives, and attempts to form a women’s wing for the terror group. The case is ongoing with the National Investigation Agency actively pursuing leads and questioning multiple suspects associated with the plot.
