Mystery packages cause a scare at Negeri Sembilan schools
But a bomb disposal unit later found only flour and plastic plates in the packages, say state police.
Suspicious packages have caused a scare at multiple schools in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. The Negeri Sembilan police chief, Alzafny Ahmad, announced that the police are investigating the origin and reason behind the packages. The schools in Nilai and Tampin reported five and four suspicious packages respectively. Upon examination, all the packages contained only wheat flour and plastic plates.
The bomb disposal unit confirmed there were no explosives or dangerous materials inside the packages. The authorities believe the packages were left in the school compounds for some time before being reported, as the named recipients did not claim them. The police and K9 units were seen at the schools, with social media reports indicating that at least five schools received the packages.
