New Delhi : According to report of India Today, in a chilling video that has now emerged, Dr Umar un Nabi, the man responsible for the recent Red Fort car blast that killed at least 14 people, is heard talking about how the concept of suicide bombing is “very misunderstood”. Umar, speaking in fluent English, says that what is labelled a “suicide bombing” is actually a “martyrdom operation.
Dr Umar planned on eventually carrying out a large-scale suicide bombing. In the video, the doctor-turned-terrorist explains that what is often labelled as suicide bombing is actually a martyrdom operation in Islam. Umar claims there are arguments and contradictions against it, and describes a martyrdom operation as when a person assumes they will die at a specific place and time, acting against the natural presumption of death.
Martyrdom operation is when a person presumes that he is going for sure die at a particular place at a particular time, he goes against the presumption that a particular person is going to die. He is going to die in a particular situation,” he said. According to him, in his case, “we don’t have the situation.” The November 10 explosion ripped through a busy street near the historic monument, killing at least 14 people and injuring more than 20 others.
The module linked to the Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammad terrorist group allegedly included nine to 10 members, among them five to six doctors, who worked at the tainted Al-Falah Univerity and used their medical credentials to procure chemicals and materials for explosives.
Dr Umar originally hailed from Pulwama’s Koil village. His relatives have described him as a quiet, introverted man who kept to himself and spent hours reading.
But police sources say Umar’s behaviour had changed in recent months. He had skipped university duties since October 30 and began travelling frequently between Faridabad and Delhi, visiting mosques near the Ramleela Maidan and Sunehri Masjid. He is believed to have gone underground near Dhauj village, switching off five phones. During the course of the probe, investigators also found that Umar and Dr. Muzammil Ganaie, who was arrested after police busted the terror module, had travelled to Turkey, where their handlers are suspected to be operating.
