Breaking: Forensic Teams Probe Red Fort Blast Site As NIA Likely To Take Over Investigation | ABP NEWS

Reporting live from the Red Fort blast site, visuals show the entire area cordoned off by Delhi Police with heavy forensic and NSG presence. The blast occurred near the Red Fort Metro Gate, where an i20 car exploded shortly after exiting the parking area. The explosion was so intense that nearby vehicles, including a Suzuki car parked along Netaji Subhash Marg, were severely damaged, shattered windshields, broken side mirrors, and a collapsed roof revealing the power of the detonation. Forensic experts are currently gathering evidence from the site, examining chemical residues and collecting fragments to determine if the explosion was caused by a planted bomb or a car malfunction. Early inputs suggest traces of ammonium nitrate, indicating possible use of explosives. Shockingly, the car’s owner and two other suspects are reportedly doctors, raising suspicion of a deeper conspiracy. The blast’s possible links are being traced across Jammu & Kashmir, Faridabad, and Saharanpur, with the Ministry of Home Affairs expected to hand over the case to the National Investigation Agency (NIA). Authorities are awaiting a formal statement from the Home Ministry while maintaining a high alert around Red Fort and nearby metro routes.
