The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has filed a supplementary chargesheet against three more accused, including absconding paediatrician Muzafar Ahmad, in connection with the November 2025 vehicle-borne bomb blast near Delhi's Red Fort that killed 11 people. Muzafar, identified as a founding member of the Al-Qaeda offshoot Ansar Ghazwat-ul-Hind (AGuH) Interim, is alleged to have played a key role in planning and manufacturing explosives. The chargesheet also names Zameer Ahmad Ahanger and Tufail Ahmad Bhat, linked to arms supply and logistics. The total accused now stands at 13, including the deceased prime accused Dr Umer Un Nabi. Efforts to apprehend Muzafar continue as legal proceedings proceed against others.
