Watch | CCTV footage shows precise moment of Red Fort blast, chaos and panic thereafter

A CCTV footage that showed the precise moment of the explosion that took place near Delhi's Red Fort surfaced on Wednesday.

The visual was recorded by a surveillance camera installed at the crossing of the Red Fort, and showed busy traffic movements before a sudden fireball was seen in the screen.

The recording confirmed the time of the explosion that investigators established earlier.

The blast occurred around 6.50 pm on Monday, and it seemed like a red balloon bursting, followed by chaos and panic as people run for cover.

The car is believed to have been driven by Dr Umar Nabi, assistant professor at Al-Falah University in Haryana's Faridabad.
