Doctor-Turned-Terrorist: The Delhi Bomb Plot

Summary

What if a doctor's ambition twisted into a plot to poison thousands in Delhi? This story unravels the journey of Umar, a Kashmiri student who excelled in exams, becoming the top-ranked candidate in Jammu and Kashmir's medical entrance test. His path to becoming a doctor led him to GMC Srinagar, where he was influenced by faculty members Irfan Ahmed and Nisar ul Hassan, both connected to Pakistan-based terror outfits. These individuals aimed to radicalize educated youth, using propaganda to foster anti-India sentiment. Irfan eventually introduced Umar to Adil Ahmed, another medical student. Crucially, Adil's brother, Muzaffar Ahmed, was in the same private college as Muzammil Shakeel, a childhood acquaintance of Umar who also cleared the medical entrance. This network of four medical students—Umar, Adil, Muzaffar, and Muzammil—became central to a terror plot targeting Delhi. The plan involved a last-minute defector and the potential poisoning of water tanks, highlighting the chilling transformation of aspiring medical professionals into instruments of terror.
