New Delhi: NIA officers reached Srinagar after new leads surfaced. They tracked digital hints and movement records. The team located the suspect quietly. He tried to stay hidden but failed. His device history matched Umar’s trail. Officers found links to meetings held before the blast. Every clue pointed toward his direct role in planning.
Investigators say he helped the bomber with tools. He modified small drones. He tested simple rocket parts. He studied online manuals secretly. He stored items in safe spots. His job was to support the main attacker. These activities made him a key part of the module. The team now sees him as a strong link.
Umar Un Nabi drove the blast car. He was a doctor by training. He worked in Faridabad earlier. He kept his daily life quiet. He used clean papers to avoid suspicion. He travelled across Nuh, Delhi, and Faridabad. CCTV footage caught his route hour by hour. He passed through sensitive zones without panic. Investigators stitched his path from 1,300 cameras.
Aamir Rashid Ali bought the car used in the blast. The vehicle was in his name. He lived in Pampore earlier. He moved in and out of Delhi often. He stayed short-term in rented flats. He met Umar secretly. He helped choose the car model. He paid in small transactions. He tried to delete many chats later.
The agency examined dozens of witnesses. They interviewed blast survivors. Police from Delhi, J&K, Haryana, and UP shared inputs. NIA collected the electronic trail. They found encrypted chats. Some messages tried to lure young people. The team also recovered unused tools. These tools matched the suspect’s earlier searches. Everything suggests a wider network behind the attack.
Three 9mm cartridges were recovered. One was empty, two were live. Such ammunition is not allowed for civilians. Investigators want to know how it reached the site. They are checking supplier data. They are checking past seizures too. This detail hints at a bigger supply chain. It adds new pressure on the probe. Agencies believe more searches are needed.
NIA will question the new suspect deeply. They will compare his statements with Umar’s movements. Phone dump data will be checked again. More CCTV points will be reviewed. Police teams may conduct more raids. Agencies want to identify every helper. They want to stop future attacks. The case is moving toward a major breakthrough.
