SRINAGAR: Security forces have demolished the Pulwama residence of Umar Nabi, the man suspected to be behind the deadly car blast near Delhi\u2019s Red Fort earlier this week. The controlled demolition was carried out overnight between Thursday and Friday as part of the ongoing investigation.<\/p>\n
At least 13 people were killed and several others injured when a white Hyundai i20 loaded with explosives blew up near the historic monument on Monday evening. Officials said DNA samples from the blast site were matched with those of Umar\u2019s mother, confirming that he was driving the vehicle at the time of the explosion.<\/p>\n
Umar, previously known among acquaintances as an academic professional, is believed to have been radicalised over the past two years. Investigators said he had become active on encrypted social media channels and joined several extremist groups online.<\/p>\n
Security agencies continue to examine his suspected network and possible support system. More details are expected as the investigation progresses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
