Early Times Report
Jammu, Nov 11: Investigators probing Monday’s devastating car blast near Delhi’s Red Fort that claimed twelve lives and injured several others have uncovered what they describe as a sophisticated “white-collar terror network” involving three medical professionals from Jammu and Kashmir, officials said.
The involvement of doctors in the terror plot has raised serious concerns among security agencies about the changing face of extremism in the union territory, with educated professionals allegedly being radicalized to carry out attacks.
Dr. Mohd Umar, identified as the driver of the explosive-laden Hyundai i20 that detonated near the iconic monument, was reportedly himself killed in the Monday morning blast.
The physician, who completed his MBBS from the prestigious Government Medical College (GMC) in Srinagar after securing admission on merit, hailed from Koil village in Pulwama district.

The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) on Tuesday handed over the probe into a blast near the Red Fort to the National Investigation Agency (NIA), sources said.
This is a clear indication that the blast, which has so far claimed 12 lives, is being considered by the government as an act of terror, as the NIA is mandated to probe terror cases only. “The blast case has been handed over to the NIA,” a source said. The decision came hours after Union Home Minister Amit Shah reviewed the security situation in the national capital and other parts of the country following the blast.
Shah has called another security review meeting on Tuesday afternoon.
