<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nNEW DELHI: On Nov 10 last year, 13 minutes before the explosive-laden i20 exploded near Red Fort, bomber Umar-un-Nabi tried to park the car near \u2018Lal Mandir\u2019 in Chandni Chowk \u2014 suggesting it was the first target \u2014 but was diverted due to heavy traffic and police presence there. CCTV footage captured him attempting to park at 6.37pm, after which he took a U-turn and reached near Gate No. 4 of Red Fort, where he triggered the IED at 6.50pm.The details are part of the chargesheet recently filed by National Investigation Agency<\/a> (NIA) in connection with the Red Fort blast. The chargesheet provides extensive details of the planning and execution of the first-ever vehicle-borne IED (VBIED) attack reported in the national capital.NIA has said the VBIED was detonated through a remote \u2018command mechanism\u2019 fitted in one of the shoes of the bomber, Umar-un-Nabi. A metal piece attached to the heel of one shoe was found adjacent to the i20 used by Umar, and it tested positive for triacetone triperoxide (TATP), potassium and ammonium nitrate. The other exhibits from this car included a nasal orifice swab matched with the DNA of Umar\u2019s pare-nts, confirming his iden-tity as the bomber, the chargesheet stated.Further, a forensic report of the blast reported in Nowgam, J&K, on the explosives seized from Umar\u2019s associates from Faridabad also tested positive for the same chemicals, confirming the module\u2019s existence.\u201cThe yield (impact) of TATP and its stability also depends on its storage in a cold environment and presence of 10% water. Witnesses have deposed that Umar used to keep his room extremely cool, and that a foul smell used to emanate from it. He and others had also purchased collapsible water bags, which were used to keep the prepared TATP under wet conditions to keep it safe. Water was regularly added to the IED to keep the explosive mixture stable,\u201d the chargesheet said.The post-mortem reports of the victims furnished by the hospital ascertain the cause of death to be \u201chigh-intensity blast wave effect\u201d. The blast, the chargesheet said, led to the death of 11 people and injuries to 29. Damage to the nearby structures amounted to Rs 17.7 lakh, as assessed by authorities like DMRC, ASI and PWD, it added.NIA found that on Oct 30, Umar met an acquaintance behind Al Falah hospital, gave him his room key and asked him to bring his \u201cshoes\u201d from the almirah in the room. \u201cHe was already wearing his shoes at the time. He was visibly distressed as J&K police had raided the module by then,\u201d said the chargesheet.While on the run, Umar was storing his urine in a polythene bag, as observed by the woman who owned the house in Nuh where he had sought shelter. \u201cHe did not go outside to dispose of it and thus a foul smell was emanating from the room, prompting the woman to complain to her husband,\u201d the chargesheet said.\u201cInterestingly, an innovative method for preparing explosive substances using urea nitrate has been elaborated in a PDF material seized from the pen drives of the accused wherein an alternative method for the source of urea is mentioned as \u2014 \u2018extracting urea from urine\u2019.\u201dIt also mentioned the seizure of a terror manual, \u201cLone Mujahid Pocket Book\u201d, which was published in \u201cInspire\u201d magazine, affiliated with Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), being followed by the module. NIA said the manual provided operational information related to explosives, weapons, vehicles, arson and covert activities, with detailed chapters on TATP and remote-control mechanisms for detonating IEDs.On Nov 7, Umar also bought a new T-shirt, a wine-coloured shirt and green-coloured cargo pants by making payment in cash to a shop in Nuh, the chargesheet said.<\/div>\n The National Investigation Agency filed a charge sheet detailing the Red Fort vehicle-borne IED attack.
