Breaking: ED Probe Widens As Al-Falah University Linked To Terror Network Faces Major Scrutiny

The investigation into the Delhi blast case has intensified, with the Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducting extensive searches at Al-Falah University’s Faridabad campus and its Okhla office in Delhi. The institution has emerged as a critical link in the unfolding terror network, as several arrested individuals— including Dr. Umar, Dr. Muzammil, and Dr. Shaheen—were associated with the university. The ED is probing financial irregularities under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) to trace possible foreign funding that may have supported radicalisation, logistics, and operational planning for terror activities. Officials are examining registers, digital ledgers, and fund movement trails to uncover the financial ecosystem that may have enabled the module. Sources indicate that terror modules often rely on foreign funding channels disguised through institutions and organisations, making financial audits crucial for dismantling the network. Agencies believe cutting the funding source is key to breaking the backbone of such operations. Parallel investigations are also focused on identifying handlers across the border who orchestrated radicalisation, recruitment, reconnaissance, and indoctrination. The recently surfaced video of Dr. Umar—recorded before his failed fidayeen attempt—has further strengthened suspicions of a larger conspiracy.
As the probe expands nationwide, agencies are working to map every link connected to the terror plot.
