Interpol Notice Sought for Delhi Blast Accused
A doctor named Dr Muzaffar Rather is accused of helping plan a big explosion near the Red Fort in Delhi.
He is said to have provided money, communication, and other support from Afghanistan.
The driver of the car that exploded, Dr Umar-un-Nabi, carried out the attack with Rather's help.
Rather has been declared a wanted person by a special court, and officials are trying to get an Interpol notice to catch him.
The explosion killed many people, and investigators believe Rather is hiding in Afghanistan.
