Early Times Report
Jammu, Nov 20: Just days before he allegedly detonated a massive car bomb near Delhi’s iconic Red Fort, killing 13 innocent people, Dr Umar Mohammad alias Umar-un-Nabi calmly handed his mobile phone to his own brother with a bone-chilling instruction:
“If anything about me comes on the news, destroy this phone in water.”
That phone, now recovered from a watery grave by
forensic teams, contained the suicide bomber’s self-shot “martyrdom video” that has sent shockwaves across the nation after going viral on Tuesday.
In the disturbing footage, the soft-spoken doctor coldly justifies suicide bombing as a “blessed martyrdom operation,” praising it as the ultimate act of faith while smiling into the camera footage so incendiary that social media platforms are scrambling to take it down.
Sources reveal that Umar-un-Nabi had travelled to Kashmir just days before carrying out the November 10 attack, meeting individuals who investigators believe gave him the final push to execute the massacre.
His brother, Zahoor Illahi, initially denied any knowledge of the plot when questioned by police. But under sustained interrogation, he broke down and admitted the truth: Umar had personally handed him the phone with explicit orders to drown it the moment his name appeared in the media.
Zahoor then led investigators to the exact spot where he had disposed of the device. Forensic experts successfully retrieved the phone and extracted the explosive video along with other damning digital evidence that has now become central to the case.
Meanwhile, a radical cleric from south Kashmir has emerged as the suspected mastermind behind the radicalisation of the entire “white-collar terror module.”
Maulana Irfan Ahmed, a Shopian-based preacher with alleged direct links to Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed, is accused of brainwashing highly educated doctors into becoming cold-blooded terrorists.
Investigators say Muzamil Shakeel — the Al-Falah University scholar arrested with a staggering 2,950 kg of explosives in Faridabad — had repeatedly met the cleric and was fully under his influence. The same ammonium nitrate seized from Shakeel was used by Dr Umar to turn an ordinary car into a rolling inferno outside the Red Fort.
Thirteen lives snuffed out in seconds. A doctor turned death merchant. A brother forced to choose between blood and country. And a Kashmiri cleric allegedly pulling strings from the shadows for a banned Pakistani terror outfit. |
