Blast near Israeli embassy: Delhi Police finds 'proof' of conspiracy; to register FIR

New Delhi: After three days of investigation into the blast near the Israeli embassy here, the Delhi Police is planning to register an FIR as they have found "crucial evidence" pointing to a conspiracy to threaten the envoy, sources said on Friday.

Sources said security agency officials are contemplating the charges under which the FIR would be registered. They are also analysing if the investigation can be handed over to the National Investigation Agency.

Officials of the Delhi Police have scanned multiple CCTV footage and spotted a suspect who had come from Jamia Nagar in an auto-rickshaw. They have questioned multiple auto-rickshaw drivers, including the one who brought that suspect to the spot before the blast on December 26.


MEA spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said: "The concerned agencies are looking into the matter... They've also, I think, briefed the media on that. Let them finish their investigations.."
