NIA Takes Over Investigation of ‘Blast’ Call Near Israel Embassy in Delhi
In response to a reported ‘blast’ near the Israel Embassy in Delhi, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has joined forces with the Delhi Special Cell and Dog Squad to launch a thorough investigation. The incident was reported a day earlier, prompting heightened security measures and the examination of CCTV footage.
Authorities have identified two individuals spotted near the Israel Embassy on the evening of the incident. While their connection to the alleged blast remains unclear, the police are diligently working to determine their identity and the purpose of their presence in the area at the time of the reported incident.
In a significant development, a letter addressed to the Israeli ambassador was discovered near the embassy. The letter, written in English, contains threatening language and is purportedly from a group named “Sir Allah Resistance”. The police are currently analyzing the contents of the letter for further insights.
The Delhi Police received the initial call about a ‘blast’ at approximately 6 pm, leading to the swift deployment of the crime unit, fire services, and bomb disposal squad to the site. Despite the security guard reporting a loud noise similar to a tire burst and smoke near a tree, no evidence of an actual blast has been found at the location, as confirmed by sources in the special cell.
Security measures in the area have been heightened, with increased police presence and enhanced monitoring through CCTV cameras. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities are diligently examining CCTV footage from nearby areas to trace the route taken by the two suspects.
As the NIA takes charge of the investigation, the focus remains on unraveling the details surrounding the alleged ‘blast’ and determining the authenticity of the threat posed by the letter addressed to the Israeli ambassador. Further updates are expected as the investigation progresses.
