More than two weeks after the Red Fort blast, fresh details about how the Faridabad terror module worked have emerged. Delhi suicide bomber Dr Umar un Nabi was said to be 'reckless' while another member of the module, Dr Muzammil Shakeel, was described as 'calm and methodical', according to sources cited by a report.
Kashmir-based Muzammil, arrested for storing explosives and weapons at multiple rented locations in Faridabad, provided logistical support for the terror module, according to a report by News18. Foreign handlers Ukasha, Mansoor and Hashim reportedly guided Muzammil on procuring, transporting and hiding the weapons and explosives.
The Enforcement Directorate has arrested Jawad Ahmed Siddiqui, founder and chairman of Al-Falah University. He's being held under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). ED teams raided over 25 locations linked to the Al-Falah Group in the Delhi-NCR region.… pic.twitter.com/shGU9S6ACb

“His calm, methodical approach made him the logistical backbone of the doctor module," the report quoted sources as saying.
Umar, on the other hand, wanted to carry out attacks quickly. However, Muzammil feared this would expose the module and insisted on playing the long game by setting up a support network and recruit more educated Muslims, said the report.
Muzammil reportedly believed that having doctors and engineers in the module would make it easier to move around and operate without drawing attention.
The report also suggested that his seniority at Al Falah University gave him easy access to junior doctors and interns and use hospital precincts to store explosives. Since he hailed from Jammu and Kashmir's Pulwama, frequent travel between home and Faridabad allowed him to personally transport the weapons and explosive materials. |
