The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has arrested a seventh accused in connection with the Delhi blast case. An NIA official spokesperson said the agency arrested Soyab, a resident of Dhauj in Haryana’s Faridabad, for allegedly providing logistical support to “terrorist Umar Un Nabi” before the Delhi terror bomb blast.
“The agency continues to pursue various leads in connection with the suicide bombing, and has been conducting searches across states in coordination with the respective police forces in a bid to identify and track others involved in the gruesome attack,” the spokesperson said in a statement.
Following the arrest, the NIA on Wednesday produced Soyab and another accused Amir Rashid Ali, also arrested in connection with the Red Fort blast case, before a Delhi court. The NIA is likely to seek their custodial interrogation. The November 10 car blast near the Red Fort claimed 15 lives.
