The devastating suicide blast near Delhi's Red Fort on November 10 has sent shockwaves throughout the security agencies. The NIA is diligently investigating this case, unearthing sensational revelations along the way. It turns out that a 'white-collar terror module' was gearing up for a series of coordinated blasts. They were indoctrinating several young individuals to become suicide bombers.
Dr. Umar Mohammad Nabi, the terrorist behind the blast near Red Fort, rented a secluded room in Faridabad. Before the attack, he isolated himself in that room for 10 days. Not stepping out, not meeting anyone, he was busy in mind control, creating 70 lethal videos aimed at brainwashing young minds, which he sent to 11 individuals.
Disclosures of Faridabad’s doctor module came to light when it was revealed that Umar Nabi holed himself up in a room in Haryana's Nuh. Confined inside, he neither bathed nor changed clothes, living in filth as he prepared himself mentally and physically as a 'Fidayeen'.

He only ventured out under the cover of darkness for food, disappearing shortly after. During these 10 days, he not only conditioned himself but also worked on preparing others. Seventy videos were found on his mobile, from which 12 were recorded within the confines of his room. These were sent to 11 youths, seven of whom hail from Kashmiri origin.
All are linked to Al-Falah University. The rest are from Uttar Pradesh, Kerala, and Karnataka, posing the grave threat that they may have turned into suicide bombers like Umar. Operations across four states are underway to track them down. Sources claim that Umar's videos followed the exact pattern utilized by terrorists for brainwashing.
He incessantly reiterates ideas of 'Jihad', 'Martyrdom', 'Reward', and 'Mission'. A shocking aspect was how the individual who arranged the I-20 car for Umar refrained from becoming a suicide bomber initially. Umar tried brainwashing him through videos too, seemingly forming a team targeting youths across various states.

Umar Nabi visited his home two weeks before the Delhi blast, handing one of his two mobile phones to his brother, Zahoor Ilahi, asking him to dispose it in water if any news broke out. That phone later became pivotal evidence for the case. Zahoor took it between October 26-29 and discarded it into a pond post Umar's accomplices' arrest on November 9.
The NIA found these phones switched off. One’s last location was Delhi, the other at Pulwama, recovered from the pond. Although water-damaged, the forensic team retrieved a video showing Umar declaring his journey towards martyrdom, indicating his awareness of the looming end.

Throughout the investigation, CCTV footage helped reconstruct Umar Nabi's entire route. On October 29, he was at Al-Falah University with his i-20 car. His car was seen at Khillapur toll plaza on the nights of November 9 and 10, entering Delhi via the expressway the morning of November 10, proceeding through various locations.
Umar Nabi navigated through Delhi’s borders, stopping at iconic sites before reaching Red Fort. What transpired next is known nationwide. He detonated his i20 car laden with explosives, causing 15 fatalities and injuring over 20 individuals.
