A Deadly Car Blast Rocks Delhi: Man Arrested in Kashmir Linked to Attack
Indian authorities announced the arrest of Amir Rashid Ali, a resident of Pampore in Indian-administered Kashmir, over his alleged role in last week's deadly car blast that rocked New Delhi. The bombing near the Red Fort left 12 people dead and 32 injured.
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) identified Mr. Ali as the owner of the car involved in the attack, which was registered in his name. According to the NIA, Mr. Ali conspired with a "suicide bomber" named Umar Un Nabi to carry out the terrorist attack. The suspect allegedly traveled to Delhi to facilitate the purchase of the vehicle used to transport explosives for the blast.
Indian authorities have been tight-lipped about the involvement of Pakistan in the attack, citing concerns that it could escalate tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbors. However, officials have promised to investigate all possible leads and identify those involved if they are found.
The arrest comes just days after a cache of confiscated explosives detonated in a police station in Srinagar, killing nine people and injuring nearly 30 others. The authorities ruled out any involvement by armed groups in the explosion but claimed to have recovered a "massive cache" of arms, ammunition, and explosives in raids across multiple northern Indian states.
The recent spate of violence in Kashmir has raised concerns about the stability of the region and the ability of Indian authorities to tackle militant groups. As the investigation into last week's blast continues, many are watching closely to see if the arrest will lead to further breakthroughs or if it marks a turning point in efforts to bring perpetrators to justice.

and I'm still trying to process everything. Arresting Amir Rashid Ali seems like a good start, but we need more answers about what led to this attack and if Pakistan was involved 
. It's not fair to leave out any possible leads and just hope for the best. We need transparency here 
. And with all these violent incidents happening in Kashmir, it's getting harder to trust that Indian authorities can keep everyone safe 
. We need more than just arrests, we need accountability and solutions 
. The people of Delhi are already feeling the effects of this blast, and it's time for real action 
.
this is getting crazy what's goin on in Kashmir man i don't know how much more of this i can take 12 people dead and 32 injured that's just horrific and now they're sayin Amir Rashid Ali was involved with some suicide bomber ugh why do these things keep happenin? 
the authorities are bein tight lipped about Pakistan's involvement which is suspicious but at least they're investigatin i hope this arrest leads to more people gettin caught and justice bein served soon 
. We need answers, India, not just arrests 
.
and Kashmir. The fact that Amir Rashid Ali was arrested and his name is linked to the blast is a relief but its also kinda scary thinking about how far this plot went. I feel bad for the victims & their families, 12 people lost their lives & 32 injured... 
I'm not buying that Amir Rashid Ali is just some random guy linked to the attack. There's gotta be more to it than meets the eye. What's really going on here? Is India trying to distract us from something else? 
.
It's so scary when tensions between countries rise up. Anyway, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Amir Rashid Ali gets the justice he deserves 
.
just thinking about this car blast in Delhi is giving me the chills... 12 people dead and 32 injured? that's just heartbreaking 
gotta hope that Amir Rashid Ali and whoever else is involved gets brought to justice ASAP 
so that the ppl of Delhi can start feeling safe again 
. The fact that the authorities are "tight-lipped" about Pakistan's involvement is just... yeah 
. I mean, if they're really concerned about escalating tensions, maybe they should focus on actually addressing the root causes of all this violence instead of just pretending like everything's fine 
. One thing's for sure, though: it's not going to be a good week for India 
. First, you got this car blast in Delhi that kills 12 people and then this explosion in Srinagar that takes out 9. It's like the authorities can't even get a handle on what's going on over there 
.
.
and now there's this guy Amir Rashid Ali who's been arrested but are we really going to find out if pakistan was involved? 
will it lead to more breakthroughs or just another case of them not finding anyone guilty? 
, need to think about the future of Kashmir and how we can keep our youth from getting radicalized 
"
. And let's be real, the fact that he was registered as the owner of the car used in the blast means nothing if the "authorities" are more interested in covering up their own incompetence than actually addressing the root cause of the problem.
I'm all for keeping everyone safe, but let's not just sweep things under the rug and say it's someone else's problem. 
just hope the arrest helps catch more people like Amir Rashid Ali and brings some peace back to Delhi 
and I can imagine how scary it must've been for everyone involved...
