New Delhi: The special court of the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has extended the custody of four accused in the Delhi Red Fort terror attack case for 10 days. Those detained include Dr. Muzammil, Dr. Adeel, Dr. Shaheen, and Mufti Irfan Ahmed. This court's decision will help the investigating agency delve deeper into the case and uncover other possible links.

The NIA team brought Dr. Shaheen to Faridabad on Thursday evening and interrogated her at Al-Falah University. Dr. Shaheen is believed to have worked as a female commander of Jaish-e-Mohammed. Previously, Dr. Muzammil was also interrogated on the same university campus. Sources indicate that Dr. Adeel may also be called for questioning soon.
The NIA interrogated Shaheen for several hours and inspected various parts of the university. The team gathered information about her daily routine, the people she met, and the people she was in contact with.
Dr. Shaheen was taken to Room No. 22 of the Al-Falah Medical College and University hostel and her activities were examined. The team inspected every part of the room and questioned her about her daily activities at the university.
In addition, Shaheen was taken to the university's Vice-Chancellor, Bhupinder Kaur Anand, where they both made face-to-face identifications. This was significant because Shaheen had contact with several suspects on the university campus.
During the investigation, Shaheen and Muzammil were taken to their rented house in Khori Jamalpur. According to sources, the two had hosted a small party there, attended by about ten people. Through this process, the NIA is attempting to determine the extent of the two accused's network and their connections with other suspects.
The NIA states that this extended custody will help the investigating agency identify the planning of the Red Fort attack and other potential individuals involved. It will also be possible to gather information about evidence and digital data concealed by the accused.
