Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday chaired a high-level meeting with senior officials to review the investigation into the Delhi car blast that killed 12 people and injured several others near the Red Fort.

Sharing details on X, Shah said he had instructed officials to “hunt down each and every culprit” involved in the incident.

“Chaired review meetings on the Delhi car blast with the senior officials. Instructed them to hunt down each and every culprit behind this incident. Everyone involved in this act will face the full wrath of our agencies,” the Union Minister wrote.

The meeting was attended by Union Home Secretary Govind Mohan, Intelligence Bureau Director Tapan Deka, Delhi Police Commissioner Satish Golcha, and NIA Director General Sadanand Vasant Date. Jammu and Kashmir DGP Nalin Prabhat joined the meeting virtually, sources told PTI.

Police Register UAPA Case, Raids Underway

On Tuesday, the Delhi Police registered an FIR under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) and the Explosives Act, invoking sections related to conspiracy and execution of a terror attack.

Multiple raids were carried out across the national capital after preliminary findings suggested a link between the Delhi blast and the terror module uncovered in Faridabad.

The national capital has been placed on high alert, with intensified security checks at airports, railway stations and bus terminals. Police teams are also maintaining a close watch on hotels, guest houses and border entry points.

According to police sources, Umar Mohammad, a doctor from Pulwama, was allegedly driving the Hyundai i20 car that exploded near the Red Fort Metro Station’s parking area. His image reportedly appears in CCTV footage obtained from the vicinity, where he can be seen driving a car moments before the explosion.
