CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: In a significant development in the Coimbatore car blast case, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has made three additional arrests, intensifying the investigation into the terror plot. These arrests come after months of probing the origins of the bombing, which was initially suspected to be an isolated incident but has now been linked to a larger terror network.
The NIA has unearthed critical evidence pointing to financial backing for the suicide bombing, revealing a web of foreign and domestic supporters who funded the operation. Investigators believe the funding for the attack may have been sourced through illegal channels, including money laundering and hawala networks. This discovery has prompted a broader examination of extremist financing in India, with authorities tracking down links to various terrorist cells.
The Coimbatore car blast, which occurred earlier this year, resulted in widespread panic and raised alarms about the resurgence of sleeper cells in southern India. The NIA’s recent breakthroughs are expected to shed more light on the full scope of the conspiracy and lead to further arrests as they close in on the masterminds behind the attack. Security agencies across the region have been alerted to the potential threat of more such incidents as investigations continue.
