A massive explosion at the Nowgam Police Station in Srinagar claimed the lives of nine people and left 27 injured. DGP Nalin Prabhat clarified that the incident was not a terror attack but an accidental blast.
The explosion occurred while police were collecting samples from highly sensitive explosives seized from the rented house of Dr. Muzammil Ganai in Faridabad. These materials are linked to the IED used in the Red Fort–area car bomb blast in Delhi. The impact of the explosion damaged nearby buildings due to its intensity.
