Chilling video out: Delhi Red Fort attack suicide bomber Umar Un Nabi calls act 'martyrdom operation'

A video purportedly of Delhi Red Fort blast suicide bomber Umar Un Nabi was out on Tuesday, wherein he was heard speaking about a suicide attack. The video was shot some months before the attack on November 10, which killed 13 people.

In the video sourced by NDTV, Umar is heard justifying suicide bombing, calling it “martyrdom”. He says that suicide bombing was “one of the very misunderstood concepts”. “It is a martyrdom operation... known in Islam.  Now, there are multiple contradictions; there are multiple arguments that have been brought against it," Umar is heard saying in the video.

The video, which appears to have been shot inside a room, could now help ascertain Umar’s involvement in the case.

He is also heard justifying the suicide attacks, stating, “martyrdom operation is when a person presumes that he is going to die for sure at a particular place at a particular time.”

“He goes against the presumption that a particular person is going to die. He is going to die in a particular situation," he says, urging not to fear death."

The video shows Umar speaking in a clear English accent and reflects his extremely radicalised state of mind.
