India's National Investigation Agency (NIA) said on Sunday it had arrested Amir Rashid Ali in Delhi, accusing him of conspiring with the driver of a car that exploded near the Red Fort last week, killing eight people and injuring at least 20 others on 10 November.
The NIA revealed that the car used in the attack was registered in Ali’s name.
They allege that Ali worked with Umar Un Nabi, a resident of Indian administered Kashmir's Pulwama district, who is identified as the suicide bomber responsible for the blast.
According to the agency, Ali travelled to Delhi to help facilitate the purchase of the vehicle, which was later used as a "vehicle-borne Improvised Explosive Device" (IED) to carry out the attack.
The explosion occurred in one of the most guarded areas in Delhi.
In connection with the investigation, the NIA has seized another vehicle owned by Nabi for examination. As part of the probe, the agency has interrogated 73 witnesses, including those who were injured in the blast.
The Indian government has labelled the explosion as a "terror incident" and vowed to bring the responsible parties to justice swiftly.
This explosion marks the first such attack in Delhi since 2011.
