The Delhi High Court on August 18 denied default bail to Jasir Bilal Wani, accused in the 2025 Red Fort car bomb blast case, dismissing his appeal against a trial court's rejection. Wani, arrested by the National Investigation Agency in November 2025, is alleged to have provided technical support for terror attacks by modifying drones and attempting to make rockets. The court ruled that he is not entitled to default bail after 90 days as per legal provisions. The blast killed 15 people and injured several others.
