Delhi Police have recovered three 9mm cartridges from the site of the car explosion near the Red Fort earlier this month, an incident that claimed 13 lives and left several others injured. The cartridges include two live rounds and one empty shell, according to officials involved in the investigation.
The finding is notable because 9mm ammunition is commonly used by police and security forces. However, investigators did not locate any firearm or weapon components at the scene, leaving unanswered questions about how the cartridges ended up there.
Authorities have also cross-checked the ammunition issued to police personnel deployed at the location at the time of the blast. All rounds were accounted for, effectively ruling out the possibility that the cartridges belonged to officers on duty.
