The National Investigation Agency has apprehended two additional individuals connected to the Red Fort bomb blast conspiracy in Delhi, bringing the total arrests to eleven. The arrested suspects, Zameer Ahmad Ahangar from Ganderbal, Jammu and Kashmir, and Tufail Ahmad Bhat from Srinagar, were actively involved in the plot and supplied weapons to the main accused in the November 10, 2025, explosion that resulted in eleven fatalities and numerous injuries. The prime accused, Umer Un Nabi, also perished in the blast.
Both Zameer Ahmad and Tufail Ahmad were identified as Over Ground Workers (OGWs) for the banned terror group Ansar Ghazwat-ul-Hind, according to the NIA. Working closely with the Jammu and Kashmir Police, Haryana Police, and other security agencies, the NIA discovered that the duo not only participated in the Delhi blast conspiracy but also engaged in other terror-related activities. They were involved in procuring arms and ammunition for use against the Indian state, as confirmed by detailed evidence examination.
The NIA’s investigation revealed that Umer Un Nabi orchestrated the blast conspiracy in collaboration with other suspects, including Muzammil Ganai, Shaheen Saeed, Mufti Irfan, Adeel Ahmed Rather, and five others who provided support to the main conspirators. These nine individuals were previously arrested in Jammu and Kashmir and Haryana. The agency is actively pursuing the full network to ensure all involved in planning and executing the attack are held accountable.
