NIA arrested Faridabad resident Soyab 'Delhi Red Fort blast'

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Wednesday arrested a Faridabad resident for harbouring terrorist Dr Umar Muhammad also known as Un Nabi, immediately before the Delhi terror bomb blast.

The accused, identified as Soyab, a resident of Dhauj in Faridabad, Haryana, is the seventh person to be arrested in connection with the



case. 

According to the NIA, he not only harboured Umar before the attack but also provided logistical support crucial to the execution of the November 10 car bombing near the Red Fort that killed several people and left many others injured.

Prior to this arrest, the NIA had taken six of Umar’s close aides into custody as part of ongoing investigations under case number RC-21/2025/NIA/DLI.
