A Delhi court on Tuesday remanded an alleged key associate of Umar Nabi, the doctor who was believed to have been driving the car that exploded near the Red Fort metro station, to 10 days custody of the National Investigation Agency, ANI reported.

Jasir Bilal Wani alias Danish, a resident of Qazigund in Jammu and Kashmir’s Anantnag district, was arrested on Monday from Srinagar.

“NIA investigations have revealed that Jasir had allegedly provided technical support for carrying out terror attacks by modifying drones and attempting to make rockets ahead of the deadly car bomb blast…” the agency said then.

Wani was an “active co-conspirator” behind the attack and had worked closely with Nabi to “plan the terror carnage”, the agency alleged.
