Umar un-Nabi is suspected to have been driving the car that exploded. Muzammil Shakeel Ganaie was arrested recently during raids by Haryana and J&K police in Faridabad as part of a crackdown on an alleged “white collar” terror network.

The officer said the two had known each other for many years and were working together at the Al-Falah University in Faridabad. Umar was working there as an assistant professor.
