After deadly car blast in Delhi, Narendra Modi slams “conspiracy”

Investigators are focusing on traces of a terrorist network to explain the deadly explosion on Monday, November 10, in a vehicle near the iconic Red Fort building, of Mughal architecture, in New Delhi. This was the first attack in the last fourteen years on the Indian capital. The car exploded at 18:52, during rush hour, near a metro station in the old city, killing thirteen people and injuring about twenty others.

The description of the explosion is very impressive. Six vehicles were destroyed and burned, the ground was strewn with rubble and mutilated corpses. Chaos scene. Ambulances rang all over the city all night. Thanks to video surveillance images, investigators tracked the vehicle leaving the parking lot, before identifying the driver. This person is Umar Nabi, a doctor in Faridabad, from Kashmir. DNA testing is being carried out.

This information is important because Kashmir remains a highly sensitive and unstable region, home to activists and terrorists.
