Bomb Threats

A bomb threat e-mail sent to Vishal Bharti Public School in outer Delhi on Thursday turned out to be a hoax, with police tracing the sender to a student seeking to avoid exams, officials said.

According to PTI, a PCR call was received at Paschim Vihar East Police Station after the school principal reported receiving an e-mail claiming a bomb had been planted on the premises.

“Multiple teams reached the school and activated standard bomb threat protocols. The building was evacuated, and Bomb Disposal Squad, Dog Squad, and Fire Department teams conducted thorough checks,” a senior police officer told PTI.

No suspicious objects were found during the search, and the threat was declared a hoax.

A case was registered, and during the investigation, the cyber team traced the origin of the e-mail to a juvenile student.
