New Delhi: The National Investigation Agency (NIA), which deals with terror cases in India, will now probe the Israel embassy blast case. The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has issued an order to hand over the case, sources said.
Following the order, NIA will register cases under appropriate sections and will start an investigation. The Delhi Police's Special Cell will need to handover all relevant evidence and documents to the agency.
NIA officials had already visited the spot when the blast took place. An IG-level officer was with other senior officers after the blast took place.
So far, Delhi Police's Special Cell has failed to get any lead in the case and no suspect has been identified.
