The car that exploded on an arterial road near Red Fort in Delhi on Monday evening has been traced to a Kashmir-based doctor with ties to a terror module.
Union defence minister Rajnath Singh on Tuesday said those responsible for the Red Fort car blast will be brought to justice and will not be spared under any circumstances, adding that agencies were conducting a swift probe.
“I wish to assure my fellow citizens that the country’s leading investigative agencies are conducting a swift and thorough inquiry into the incident. The findings of the investigation will soon be made public. I want to firmly assure the nation that those responsible for this tragedy will be brought to justice and will not be spared under any circumstances,” Singh said at an IDSA (Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses) event, a day after the blast.
Singh also extended his condolences to all those who lost their lives in the tragic accident. “I pray to God to grant strength and solace to the bereaved families in this hour of deep grief.”
The car that exploded on an arterial road near Red Fort in Delhi on Monday evening has been traced to a Kashmir-based doctor with ties to a terror module linked to the seizure of a huge cache of explosive material in Faridabad.
The explosion engulfed nearby vehicles and left thirteen people dead and 21 injured.
