NIA is investigating the Delhi car blast in which Jaish-e-Mohammed module is involved. The center of investigation is Faridabad’s Al-Falah Medical College, from where the explosives were found and two doctors were associated with this module. A doctor died in the blast.
New Delhi: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) is likely to visit Al-Falah Medical College in Dhauj, Faridabad as part of its larger investigation into the Delhi car blast case. The involvement of Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) module has come to light in this case. Al-Falah Medical College is the same location from which additional weapons, pistols and explosives were recovered on 8 November. This medical college has become an important center of investigation after explosives were found in the college campus during the search conducted by the security agencies.
Investigation revealed that a doctor named Muzammil, who worked at Al-Falah Medical College, was arrested for his links to this module. Another member, Dr. Omar, also worked in the same institute. When the agencies cracked down on this network, he escaped arrest. Fugitive Omar, who was surrounded by continuous action of agencies, probably took this step out of panic and frustration, which led to the blast near the Red Fort. He died in this incident. CCTV footage shows that the vehicle involved in the blast was being driven by Dr. Omar of the same module.
It is learned that the NIA will investigate these two doctors in detail, as they are key members of the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) module. Eight people were killed and several others injured when a slow-moving Hyundai i20 exploded near the Subhash Marg traffic signal near the Red Fort on Monday evening. The NIA has formed a “dedicated and comprehensive” investigation team to probe the Delhi car blast incident. This was a terrorist attack, which was carried out by the JeM module exposed by Indian agencies. This team will work under the supervision of senior officers of the rank of Superintendent of Police and above, to ensure a coordinated and thorough investigation of the case.
The move comes a day after the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) formally handed over the investigation to the NIA, citing the terror angle behind the blast. Following the transfer, the NIA immediately registered a case and initiated a detailed investigation to trace those responsible and uncover any larger network involved.
Sources said the agency is also coordinating with other central and state security units as part of its ongoing investigation. The NIA team will investigate from multiple angles, including whether “the blast was deliberate or accidental”. However, it is clear that this incident is an important part of the same sequence in which the agencies exposed a major terrorist module and seized a huge quantity of explosives from Faridabad. However, the agencies have clarified that the blast near the Red Fort is ultimately linked to an incident involving some objectionable posters found under the jurisdiction of Nowgam police post in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, following which an FIR was registered on October 19, 2025. The NIA will also investigate the role of Maulvi Irfan Ahmed Waghe, who was arrested from Shopian, and Zameer Ahmed from Wakura in Ganderbal between October 20 and 27, 2025. The investigation will also include the role of Dr Adeel, who was arrested from Saharanpur in Uttar Pradesh on November 5, and an AK-56 rifle and other ammunition were seized from Anantnag hospital on November 7, 2025.
