Red Fort Blast Probe Expands
After a bomb attack at the Red Fort in Delhi, the police are working hard to find out who did it.
They are questioning many people who worked at a university in Faridabad, where some of the suspects were employed.
The police have also asked hospitals in Delhi to give them information about doctors who studied in certain countries.
They found a phone that belonged to one of the attackers, which is helping them understand more about the case.
The police are trying to make sure nothing like this happens again.
Investigators have questioned 48 staff members, including 30 doctors, at Al Falah University in Faridabad, where three of the accused were employed.
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) arrested a ward boy named Soyab for allegedly providing logistical support to the bomber, Umar Nabi.
The investigation has expanded to private hospitals in Delhi, where security agencies are requesting records of doctors who earned their MBBS degrees in Bangladesh, the UAE, China, or Pakistan.
Umar Nabi's mobile phone was recovered in Pulwama, providing investigators with information about his interactions at the university.
Authorities have sealed two rooms in the university's boys' hostel campus, previously occupied by Umar Nabi and Dr. Muzammil Ganai, where explosives were found.
