"Terrorists have to be fortunate just once": Vice President CP Radhakrishnan calls Delhi Terror Blast "painful"

New Delhi [India], November 16 (ANI): Calling the Delhi terror blast "painful", Vice President CP Radhakrishnan said that police have to be fortunate every time and terrorists have to be fortunate just once.
On November 10, the blast near the Red Fort complex in the national capital killed 12 people and injured several others.
"Police and the other Intelligence Forces have to be fortunate every time. Terrorists have to be fortunate just once," he said, calling the blast "very painful."
A team from the Faridabad Crime Branch brought a young man to Al-Falah University on Sunday as part of ongoing verification exercises linked to the Faridabad terror module. Investigations into the case are still underway.
Earlier, Intelligence agencies uncovered a Rs 20 lakh fund trail linked to three doctors, Umar, Muzammil, and Shaheen. Intelligence sources said that the amount is suspected to have been routed by a Jaish-e-Mohammed handler through a hawala network.
Of this, around Rs 3 lakh is believed to have been spent on purchasing 26 quintals of NPK fertiliser, a nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium-based chemical compound used in agriculture, which is also capable of producing explosives used in the blast.
Officials further revealed that tensions had reportedly emerged between Dr Umar-un-Nabi and Dr Shaheen over the handling of the funds. Sources added that a key lead was obtained from Muzammil, helping investigators piece together the financial links behind the conspiracy.
Meanwhile, Delhi Police sources confirmed that three cartridges recovered from the site, two live and one empty, were of 9mm calibre, a firearm type prohibited for civilian possession and used by security forces.
A senior official said that despite the cartridge recovery, no pistol or any of its parts were found at the scene."These cartridges are usually only possessed by the armed forces or those with special permission," police said.
According to sources, no pistol or any part of it was found at the scene...meaning the cartridges were found, but the weapon used to fire them has not yet been found.
The official said that they are now trying to determine how these cartridges came to be there, whether the suspect possessed them. (ANI)
