The Directorate of Enforcement (ED) is conducting searches in the case of Al Falah University, its trustees, and related persons/entities, days after at least three doctors associated with the institution were found allegedly to be the part of a “terror” module.

Umar Un Nabi, the driver of the vehicle carrying the Improvised Explosive Device (IED) that exploded near the Red Fort on November 10, worked at Al Falah University (Faridabad, Haryana) as an assistant professor in the General Medicine Department.

“In a coordinated enforcement operation at 5.15 a.m. today, officials executed search actions at over 25 locations connected to the Al-Falah group, in and around Delhi. The operation forms part of an ongoing investigation into financial irregularities, use of shell companies, accommodation entities and money laundering,” said an agency source.
