3 Kashmiris among 10 missing from Al-Falah University

At least 10 people, including three Kashmiris, who worked or studied at the Al-Falah University in Haryana’s Faridabad are missing. Their mobile phones have been turned off. The disappearance of the 10 people was flagged after a joint op by Jammu and Kashmir and Haryana Police
While it is still too early to draw conclusions, intelligence inputs said the missing people may be part of the ‘terror doctor’ module that stuffed a Hyundai i20 with ammonium nitrate fuel oil and detonated it outside the 16th century Mughal fort.
Meanwhile, more than 200 doctors and staff at Al Falah University in Faridabad are under the scanner of the investigative agencies following the blast in a car near the Red Fort on November 10, sources said.
Security agencies have been conducting frequent checks at Al Falah University, raising concerns among university students and staff. Several University employees were seen leaving the gates with their belongings packed in vehicles today. According to University sources, they are taking leave and returning to their homes.
The investigating agencies are ascertaining the number of individuals who left the university after the blast and are trying to identify them. They suspect a number of these individuals were linked to the terrorists, the sources said.
Many people have deleted their mobile data, which will also be investigated, the sources said.
Police are searching the hostels and the rooms of students living outside the University Campus and more than 1,000 people have been questioned, the sources added.
The investigating agencies detained a 35-year-old woman who rented a room to suicide bomber Dr Umar Un Nabi in Hidayat Colony in Nuh. The Anganwadi worker woman had been absconding since the Delhi bombings.
Her family is also under investigation following the incident. The sources said the investigating agencies also questioned seven other people in Nuh to find out Umar’s connection with them. The suicide bomber had used multiple mobile phones while staying at Nuh’s rented room.
Ever since the Al Falah Medical College’s links to terrorism have come to light following the blast near the Red Fort Metro station, the number of patients to its hospital has also declined. Previously, approximately 200 patients used to visit the hospital’s outpatient department every day, which has now dropped to less than 100, hospital sources said.
The investigating agencies are trying to determine if there was a handler inside the university because Umar used to get “special treatment” in the institute.
Two doctors, who are doing apprenticeship here after studying MBBS from the university, said that Umar was absent from the hospital and university for nearly six months without any leave and information in 2023. The strange aspect of the incident is that he directly resumed duty on his return and no action was taken against him, the hospital sources said.
They said Umar used to take very few classes. He would only take one or two lectures a week, and even those would last just 15 to 20 minutes. He would then return to his room. The other lecturers did not like this as they would teach for the entire time.
In a shocking revelation, the doctors said Umar was always assigned the evening or night shifts at the hospital. He was never assigned the morning shifts.
Several investigation teams are currently working at Al Falah University. In addition to the National Investigation Agency (NIA), units from the Delhi Police Special Cell, Uttar Pradesh Anti-Terror Squad (ATS), Faridabad Crime Branch and the Jammu and Kashmir Police are constantly visiting the university.
On Tuesday, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) also landed at the University. All these investigation teams have set up a temporary command centre inside the university.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has secured a 13-day custodial remand for chairperson of the Al Falah group Jawad Ahmed Siddiqui, accused of generating over Rs 415 crore “dishonestly” from students studying in the institutions run by him.
Seeking his custody during a hearing on the intervening night of Tuesday and Wednesday, the ED claimed that Siddiqui had “incentives” to flee India as his close family members are settled in the Gulf.
After the court hearing, held at the residence of Additional Sessions Judge Sheetal Chaudhary Pradhan, which ended at 1 am, the designated court sent Siddiqui to ED custody for 13 days.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) arrested Siddiqui on Tuesday night after conducting day-long searches against the group, linked persons and the Faridabad-based Al Falah University, which is emerging as an epicentre of investigation in the November 10 Delhi blast case that killed 15 persons and injured several others.
The agency informed the court that the university and its controlling trust, under the direction of Siddiqui, generated “proceeds of crime” of at least Rs 415.10 crore by “dishonestly” inducing students and parents to part with money on the basis of false accreditation and recognition claims.
The judge said, “After carefully considering the submission made, I am of the considered view that all the compliances under Section 19 of the PMLA (Prevention of Money Laundering Act) have been done.”
