How is the Investigation Progressing?
The case, now formally led by the National Investigation Agency (NIA), has moved with speed on multiple fronts. A significant breakthrough involves DNA collection; forensic teams have collected a sample from the mother of the prime suspect, Dr. Umar Un Nabi, who is believed to have been driving the explosive-laden car. Furthermore, the investigation has traced the suspect’s car on the Mumbai and KMP expressways before it entered Delhi, with agencies reviewing CCTV footage to identify any accompanying vehicles.
What is the Larger Terror Network Uncovered?
The most alarming revelation from investigators is the existence of at least two more active terror modules linked to the same network. These modules, which may have one or more operatives each, went into hiding after recent arrests in Jammu and Kashmir and Haryana. Investigators uncovered a shocking 3,000 kg of explosives during the earlier arrests, suggesting preparations for multiple synchronized blasts nationwide. Officials admit uncertainty over whether the absconding suspects still possess explosives, heightening the need for their swift arrest.
Who is Believed to be Behind the Attack?
In a multi-state crackdown, security agencies are working in tandem, focusing their probe on Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM). Investigators suspect links to a Pulwama doctor accused of planning coordinated attacks over the past year. The Ministry of Home Affairs formally handed the case to the NIA, which has registered a case under the stringent Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), signaling the seriousness with which the government is treating this national security challenge.
